late night cravings

why do i read: ever have one of those books that you just can't put down. you think about it all the time wondering what's going to happen. you resist the lusty temptation to skip to the last page and see how it ends. if you haven't, then you haven't read a great book then. honestly, if you know me, you know i read a lot of heavy stuff during the work day. so at night, my secret craving is to read a brain candy book. something with a great story line, intriguing characters, charisma. well, i'm happy to say that i've had a string of great successful books on my mind lately. it started with the twilight series, expanded to the private series (about a girl going to a private school and breaking into the clique) and is mulling nicely over the house of night series (about vampyre finishing school). while these books are geared for tweens, i'm not surprised i like them. brain candy is so much fun and has no calories. why not indulge in a secret obsession??

back to bach: i was having a hard time sleeping tonight. i'm so frustrated about a recent problem with my beloved murano suv. car dealers just suck. and i don't feel like i've been a good worker bee this week because i worked at home for 1 1/2 days. that's just not like me. so, now it's almost midnight, and i've just created my own facebook page. i've been listening to yo-yo ma's cello suites. one of the best albums i've ever had the privelege to listen to. calming, stirring, comforting. another late night craving. i'm wrapped in a soft pashmina, have socks on and am sipping a delightful cup of tea trying to settle my mind. if you have any secret solutions for calming the mind, please feel free to share.

hard times: apparently, the porn industry is asking for their own stimulus package. because of the limp economy, sales are deflated and they are asking the federal government to help invigorate the american public. there are so many jokes that are lurking in the words here. it's extremely hard, er...i mean difficult for me to resist. oh crap - i guess i didn't resist.
