First day back at work, and I'm down in the microfilm section, scanning weekly comics from a local newspaper back in 1982 so we can make a book out of them. Pretty nifty idea, but it takes so long to do. Ah well, I do what I need to do. So I'm switching back and forth from the computer-internet view to the microfilm view while it scans, because the machine is pretty old and slow and I forgot my book upstairs. It's pretty cool to learn how to use this equipment.

Also, it was nice walking in and seeing a paycheck on my desk, haha. I dunno why they didn't direct deposit it like they normally do, but I'm just glad to get my money. Most of it has to go back into my savings account since I took out SO MUCH for the break, but it's fine. As long as I have a car fund, I'm good. Hince why Candice and Vanessa are dancing in my icon. They changed the 'Busted' dance to the 'Katie Got Paid' dance. I highly approve.

In other news, it took me FOREVER to defrost my car this morning. Pucca gloves on, I was scrapping ice off the windshields. I might move my car to the other side of the house when I park in an attempt to at least put it in some sunlight--that might help. Because seriously,I was the only car on the block that was iced over THAT much. Damn! I don't live in the South for it to be cold, you know! Brrrr!

School in two days. Great. Can't wait -_- Oh well, at least it's the last semester EVER. Hopefully. Damn, I hope I didn't jinx it...

...six books in a week. WOW. I so made the best use of my last week of vacation :-)I'll probably have a real update on Thursday or Friday, once school is back in...

Yeeeeeeaaaaaah...I don't have a favorite author, what are you talking about, LALALALALA....!

A few years ago, I started the 50 book challenge and the 15,000 word challenge, where you try to read 50 books in a year and/or 15,000 words in a year. Simple enough, but I totally forgot about it, as I tend to do. SO! I'm going to attempt it again this year, and man, I got a great start already.

Books I've read (In case you're wondering, ^^)

1. The Dream-Hunter by Sherrilyn Kenyon

There's rice wank on sf_drama, which makes me LOL just thinking about it ("Let me show you how to make rice without the use of cups or a rice cooker! To do this, let me get my cup and rice cooker!") and there's an article on omonatheydidnt about how a Japanese chef insulted one of Korea's main dishes, bibimbap--which is DELICIOUS, btw. Awww, I wish I had the proper bowls for bibimbap...

Anyway, I'm now trying out my microwave rice/pasta/veggie steamer to cook rice in, and OMG, it is nice. I can't wait to use it when I cook Korean again, just because of the stove space I'm going to save. I won't use it when I'm making just rice for me, it's too big for that, I think...but parties and pasta? WHOOHOO. Also going to use it to steam the broccoli for Saturday. And tomorrow, Dani is going to help me test out the fondue set, and my new mixer will be used to make Paula Dean's "Boursin Cheese" dip, also for Saturday. (It's the dip I made for Nick's going away party).

EEEEH! I love getting cool Kitchen things for Christmas!

I just wanted to post showing off one of my new icons. I really enjoy this show more than I should, haha! But it's just so darn funny!

Thank you Disney Channel for making a show unlike everything else you have currently else on air--you know, crap. Go "Phineas and Ferb"!

Mom's been bugging me about it, so I thought I go ahead and make it out for you guys.

( List under the cut )

Hey guys! It's that time of year again, and I'm going to go ahead and bug the crap out of you until you tell me what you want for Christmas. I need to start shopping NOW before it gets to busy for me to do so otherwise, due to school, job, or my lack of transportation.

SO YES. CHRISTMAS LISTS. NOW.

(I'll upload my birthday/Christmas list soon, so you can't say I'm not doing the same!)
