Yay summer movies! I'll probably watch the Pitch Perfect movie at some point, which either a lot of people in this thread are excited for, or someone flooded the ballot box. I am most excited for the Avengers!!! I am also looking forward to Tomorrowland, but mostly because it will be a special experience - I will be on an epic Disney cruise when it premieres, which means I will get to watch it at sea! So that's pretty cool. (Also, hi everyone!!)

Oooh always happy to see JGL! Carol of the Bells is BY FAR my favorite Christmas song. The Darlene Love and Charlie Brown ones are great too though. I think I am done shopping! I still need to finish a photo compilation for my mom but I have zero desire to work on it. I take way too many pictures. I've been home sick all afternoon from what I am calling the Baby Plague. I kept my friend's 10 month old on Friday/Saturday and he was sick with something, which I seem to have picked up. I think I understand why he was so cranky!!! Boo sickness.

I rarely post here anymore, but I do lurk on occasion. *waves* I had to chime in on voting, because I voted early last week, and ended up on the news. I live in Louisiana, currently famous for Duck Dynasty. One of the "stars" was also voting early, as well as the candidate their family is supporting. I kept wondering why there was a camera in a polling place, but didn't recognize the "celebrity" voting next to me until my mom pointed him out. I joked afterward that if I had known I was going to be on the news, I would have at least put on makeup. Or brushed my hair. My brother has a beard (not as extravagant as the ones the Duck Dynasty people are known for, but fairly bushy), and he was featured on several shots. I joked that they mistook him for a member of the family. Not so coincidentally, he trimmed said beard the next day.

Yay, Amy and Tina! I think the answer to that question is, "double feature!"

Well KoB, I'm sure that if you DID sell my username to Linda in MN, she would have signed up with my email address and I'd have been able to post anyway!

I have sort of the opposite problem, frenchtoast. I got new glasses and they fit okay until my face gets oily/sweaty and then they start sliding down my nose. But I think if i get them adjusted again, they'll start hurting my ears. New glasses can be such a pain. I know we talked about books a couple weeks ago, but I wanted to recommend a series to my fellow YA readers - the Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer (no relation to Stephanie, as far as I know). It's got all my most favorite things - somewhat dystopian future, science fiction, and each book is loosely based on a fairy tale! I swear, it was written just for me. If you like any/all of those things, you should check it out! Although fair warning - the next book doesn't come out until next February, which is toooooo long!

*also raises hand* P.S. Hey guys! Sorry i haven't been back by - I was preparing for and am now on another trip to Disney World. I love me some Disney.

Hey guys! I made the shift over, even though I have rarely been seen at Luke's. Glad to see some new faces along with the familiar ones :) Awesome book talk! Like several of you, I haven't been reading as much lately as I used to. My attention span is too short now, or something. What were we talking about again? I did start reading a new series - the Lucas Davenport/Prey novels, but I'm not very far in. I loved the first book, but the second one wasn't as good. And I'm a few chapters in the third one and I'm not quite sure I will like this one either. The main character is starting to get on my nerves, which is never a good sign.
