Currently:: June


Reading: Lies I've Told by Michelle Zink. It's a YA novel, which usually I enjoy, but this one is beating me over the head with the theme and it's making it hard to get through. I dislike repetitiveness.

Listening To: the new Florence and the Machine album (Ship to Wreck is my jam), and Zella Day- Hypnotic. On repeat.



Wearing: sweaters becuase it's been kinda chilly here for June, not to mention my workplace loves to blast the AC.


Playing: 94%. It's so addictive. I've literally lost sleep thinking of "Guy names that end in L." Thanks a lot, Kathy!

Watching: Lost Girl on Netflix, and Game of Thrones on HBO. Lost Girl is a fantastic Canadian show about a woman who finds out she's not human, but rather a succubus, who feeds on the sexual energy of humans. She doesn't want to pick the dark or light side of the Fae (fairy) world, but rather wants to live among humans and help them using her special powers. SyFy recently picked it up for its fifth and final season airing this fall.

Needing: to organize my bills/paperwork, etc. 


Wanting: These completely sacrilegious candles.



Anticipating: putting up new blinds, cooking some new-to-me recipes this week, and of course OITNB.

Avoiding: making doctor appointments.

Wishing: that it would start feeling warm around here for more than a day at a time.

Trying: the S'mores Frapp from SB. They put too much whip cream which melted too quickly in my first one, but I may try it again later today. I liked it, but I didn't think it was as Earth-shaterring-ly delicious as everyone made it seem.

Buying: new blinds for my new windows, crafting stuff and an American flag shadow box frame for my Grandfather's flag from his burial (Michael's is having a big sale- check it out!), 2 pairs of flats and some cute sandals from Payless, wine, and used books. The 3 on the right were 25 cents each! I love the library.
this is basically my happy place.


Worrying about: my work situation. A member of my team was recently let go, and it seems like that was only round one of the "restructuring" plan. It doesn't help that another department is trying to cut my department out of a new tech system upgrade because of some pissing contest between higher-ups, thereby leaving us with hardly any work to do. I should probably start looking elsewhere just in case.

Planning: allthefunthings for summer. Well, all the fun yet inexpensive things for summer. I've done enough spending for this month and need to pull in the reigns a bit.

Loving: my new windows. This was my landlord's decision and I couldn't be happier about it. Finally I don't feel drafts seeping in everywhere. This will definitely help with my utility bills.



What's new with you?

  3. I love buying books from the library! 0.25 is a steal! I love when they have their annual fundraising sale. I go in there with $20 and leave with a small library. Lost Girl sounds interesting. I'll add that to my never-ending queue.

  5. I love reading currently posts ! I can relate with the bills organizing. I'm horrible and just shove them in my file cabinet. Something I'm sure I'll regret, but whatever. It makes it look like I've got this adulthing thing down !
