Reading Update
Nada! 🙂 Actually, I read a bunch more hockey rpf (real person fiction) this week. See last week’s Reading Update for why I’m not reviewing the stories here or on Goodreads.
“This spot really is just as lumpy as May said it was – I thought she was just trying to keep it for herself.” -Chaos
Phew! As I’m not interested in hockey stories, and you haven’t read anything else, my purse will be very pleased that I haven’t been tempted to buy any books this week :).
A recent post from Jenre..Review: Beyond the Edge by Elizabeth Lister
Enjoy your vacation!! 🙂
Have a great time off, doing anything fun or just relaxing?
Have the guys started to catch on to the fact that you might just be going away, for shame Mom?!!
Man, I love Zooborns. Those baby tigers are awesome. 😀

Me Erin (fingers crossed)?? or a different Erin 🙂
You wouldn’t believe May no matter what she said, Chaos.

Happy vacation! I hope Chaos & Mayhem aren’t too grumpy while you are away.

Ah Chaos, surely you should trust Princess Panther by now!
Enjoy your holiday Chris!
A recent post from Kate..Feline takeover….
Pumpkin pie and peppermint chocolate Pringles? Yech.
Ah, communicating with the walls. That explains everything.
Have a good time off!
A recent post from Cheryl S…FO: Cool Breeze Cardigan
Sigh…hockey fic, not to mention hockey itself. Why won’t the NHL lockout end? I’m feeling mighty deprived these days. Now I’ll have to feel guilty ogling college guys as they skate around on TV. There are worse things, I guess…
Have a great vacation! Do Chaos and May know that you will not be at home for part of it?
Am I the only person who doesn’t like pumpkin flavored stuff?
This has not been a stellar week for displays of kitty intelligence.
A recent post from Brenda..Granola
I see, yes kitties are excellent weather…things
A recent post from blodeuedd..Review: Deadlock – Moira Rogers
Pumpkin spice Pringles?
That said, I mostly enjoyed my Pumpkin Spice Latte this morning until I hit the sweet syrupy gloop in the bottom of the cup.
