In honor of my Blog's new name.

I finally decided on a name for my blog. I read lots of books, right? And I like funny shit, right? So, I picked from some of my favorite funny lines from books. Here are some more of my favorites:

"These books can't possibly compete with centuries of established history, especially when that history is endorsed by the ultimate best-seller of all time!" Faukman's eyes went wide. "Don't tell me Harry Potter is actually about the Holy Grail!" "I was referring to the Bible." Faukman cringed. "I knew that." -- Dan Brown, The Da Vinci Code

"Inconcievable!" -- The Princess Bride, William Goldman

"I am a sick man . . . I am a wicked man. An unattractive man, I think my liver hurts." -- Notes From The Underground, Fyodor Dostoyevsky

" . . . I could easily forgive HIS pride, if he had not mortified MINE." -- Pride and Prejudice, Jane Austen

"I haven't got the slightest idea how to change people, but still I keep a long list of prospective candidates just in case I should ever figure it out. " -- Naked, David Sedaris


"People, generally, suck." -- Lamb, Christopher Moore

"..they hung in the air, exactly the way bricks don't." -- Douglas Adams, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

"In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move." -- Douglas Adams, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy


"Ah, this is obviously some strange usage of the word 'safe' that I wasn't previously aware of." -- Douglas Adams, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

And there you go.

Oh SNAP!

I pimped out my blog! Right on.

OK...really this time.

For reals.

I mean it. I am going to update this thing. Regularly. Promise. In fact, I pinky swear it.

Here goes....

Tomorrow is election day. I super excited to get out there and vote. I like voting in person. I'll brave the lines and do it. I knew I'd be antsy tonight, so I made sure I'd have a project to keep myself busy. I pulled out my sewing machine, and made a pillowcase. Yup - a pillowcase. I have this really small travel pillow Sarah and I got on our Sacramento trip, and I actually use it every night. I guess I use it too much, cause it already fell apart. Either that or it's a piece of crap. Either way, I figured I'd sew it up, and then make a pillowcase for it to protect it. I picked out a cute doggie patterned cotton, and trimmed it with ribbon with little paws on it. Here's pictures:




So there you have it.
