A Quick Update

Ahh, it feels so good to blog again! I've missed it terribly. It drove me crazy to leave the blog neglected for the five days Melissa and I were in New York, and I felt the need to write at least a short post. We returned home yesterday, and I'm still unpacking and otherwise trying to get myself together. We had an incredible time in NYC, and I hope to assemble a post about our trip—with pics!—soon.

I really want to focus on getting back to a somewhat regular blogging schedule again. I didn't have a chance to watch the final episode of The White Queen before I went to NY; I'm going to try to catch it this week and write the recap post. Not only do I have a ton of reading to catch up on (I am clueless as to what books have been released in, say, at least the past month), but I also have a lot of TV to watch. I'm afraid to look at the space left on my DVR because I don't think it's very much. I think my best bet is to set aside a Saturday or Sunday and do nothing but sit in front of the TV. My buddy Braine at Talk Supe says I need to check out Dracula with Jonathan Rhys Meyers; I'm working on finding it on demand, I promise!

I'd like to thank all of you who continue to read this blog. I really, really, really miss interacting with you; that's been the hardest part about having the time I used to spend reading and blogging cut so drastically. I was quite stressed out about ensuring that the trip to New York went smoothly, and now that it's over, I feel like I can get a better handle on managing my spare time. And now I'm off to try and get some reading done . . . .

    1. Thanks! Hope you get to catch up, too. It's so easy to fall behind, and so tough to get back into the routine!

  2. I can't wait to see the post about your trip! Have fun slowing getting your DVR list back to manageable as well as catching up on everything book related :D If I was gone that long, I know I wouldn't have any space left LOL. That Dracula show does look great. Let me know what you think. Jaclyn @ JC's Book Haven.

    1. I watched the second episode last night, and though I'm not completely blown away by the series so far, I think it's a lot better than the usual Friday night TV offerings. I'm going to try and muster some courage today and see how full my DVR is, lol.

    1. The Victorian England setting on Dracula is pretty cool, though I'm finding the show's pacing a little sluggish at the moment. I'm hoping that'll change soon. I've really taken a liking to Sleepy Hollow; I love how Ichabod Crane is a man out of his time, and his accent- it makes me swoon!
