I love this show, but I'm the same way in that I only watch it when I go home. It's so good though!
I'm definitely up for it!
I love both of those songs! I looked up some other Stars songs and have been really impressed. Here are the new ones I've found and loved and some others I have been listening to on repeat lately :) The Calendar Girl (Stars)
Elevator Love Letter (Stars)
Be Here Now (Ray LaMontagne)
Eden was a Garden (Roman Candle)
Pulling on a Line (Great Lake Swimmers)
and Two of Us, I'm Looking Through You and I'm Only Sleeping from the I am Sam soundtrack
Janet- somewhere along the line I signed up for barnes and noble e-mails and it seems like every week they send a new 10-20% off coupon. So that might be an option for you. Also, if you know anyone else who has the B&N membership, all you need if their phone number to get the discount. Hope this helps!
I actually took this test in one of my psych classes and I was an INFJ as well. The book Please Understand Me Character and Temperament Types gives really good descriptions of all the personality types.
I am sure there are more but the ones that I remember right now are:Girl with a Pearl Earring
The Red Tent
Peace Like a River
Gone With The Wind
My Life in France
Here are my favorites:1. Gone With the Wind
2. Pride and Prejudice
3. A Tree Grows in Brooklyn
(4. would be The Grapes of Wrath or the Count of Monte Cristo, so good!)
The Time Traveler's Wife is my favorite by far. I had a little trouble getting into it at first but by the end it was one of my favorites.
Emily- I agree with Lynn, the Weepies are definitely worth delving into!
I am reading a book right now called Choose Peace & Happiness, and although it might not work for everyone, I am loving it! It is basically about the power of positive thinking and what you can accomplish with it. But more than that, it gives exercises that you can do daily or whenever you want to help you actually experience it, not just read about it. Some examples: make a list of things that bring you happiness, acknowledge your accomplishments for today (no matter how small), wear a new outfit that you have been saving, turn your lunch hour into vacation time, start and end your day with a prayer (thoughts) of appreciation, etc...
Here is the link: Choose Peace & Happiness A 52-Week Guide
Here are a few that I'm listening to right now:Can't Go Back Now/ The Weepies
The Fear You Won't Fall/ Joshua Radin
Winter Song/ Sara Bareilles and Ingrid Michaelson
Crazy Love/ Van Morrison
You Are the Best Thing/Ray LaMontagne
Also, anyone heard of An Horse? What do you think?
I'm taking ASL at a j.c. starting the first week in February. I have always wanted to learn sign language so I am really excited about it!
Yay! That's good to hear, I will keep reading!
I am actually having a hard time getting into this book...did anyone else have a similar experience? I know I will love it eventually, but I am having trouble sticking with it.

I just noticed that itunes has a section of imixes now. Have any of you noticed/used this before? It looks fun and like a good way to find new music.
I have made this recipe twice this month for my office and they LOVE it. It is also unbelievably easy and requires no baking!
Chocolate Peanut Butter Squares
INGREDIENTS
1 cup butter, melted
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
2 cups confectioners' sugar
1 cup peanut butter
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
4 tablespoons peanut butter
DIRECTIONS
In a medium bowl, mix together the butter or margarine, graham cracker crumbs, confectioners' sugar, and 1 cup peanut butter until well blended. Press evenly into the bottom of an ungreased 9x13 inch pan.
In a metal bowl over simmering water, or in the microwave, melt the chocolate chips with the peanut butter, stirring occasionally until smooth. Spread over the prepared crust. Refrigerate for at least one hour before cutting into squares.
Christmas
I bought this book over a year and a half ago! Can't wait to finally start it :)
Jamie- River Flows In You is such a beautiful song! I love it :)
Lynn- Your mix is amazing! It turned me on to so many new artists/songs. Thank you!
