That's awesome, Maritza! Cold workplaces are the worst...

Welcome to the team, Cristina!

Consistent will probably be the key for me, too, jingles. I'm going to try and ramp up my book reading, but not to the point of burn out. I guess it's all about finding that happy medium. I think this challenge will be good to find a comfortable reading pace I can stick with throughout the year.

And I totally agree about the TBR pile, Karsyn, lol. Every time mine starts to dwindle, I find myself at a bookstore or on GR adding more to it.

Journey is awesome! I love it for the interactive play. You don't think you would get attached to other players who you can't even talk to, but you really do.

I'll have to ask my husband cause he has a gazillion mods, lol. I know he has one where it increases the amount of dragon encounters you have. He has one that modifies the looks of the characters (much prettier!) and one for the landscape. I swear, it's like watching a live action documentary when I watch him play, it's so clear! I'll have to let him know about Legacy of the Dragonborn. That is right up his alley! Modding is one thing I wish you could do on the console.

I'm definitely a TNG girl. That show was what introduced me to Star Trek and Jean-Luc is my favorite Captain. I have recently started giving Voyager another try and I'm enjoying it a lot. I think when I first started watching it, I was still in mourning for TNG so I didn't give it a shot. Still can't get into DS9 or Enterprise, though. Also, I absolutely love First Contact :)

Also, definitely a Trekkie here, too :)

I'm a big fan of RPGs and puzzlers, myself :) I tend to be more console-based, though I do play Diablo III on the PC as well as Civilization V and a couple of other games. We have a PS4 and I loves it. Lately, I've been playing a lot of Journey. I absolutely adore that game. It's short and sweet, but a lot of fun.

I absolutely love Kingdom Hearts! I'm ashamed to admit I've only played the first one, but I've been meaning to play the others. My problem is I have a very short gaming attention span, lol. I start a game, get engrossed for about a month, then lose interest for awhile. My husband, who is a big time gamer, doesn't get it at all, heh.

Speaking of the hubs, he's mainly a PCer and refuses to play Skyrim without mods. Like you said, the things they can do are incredible!

All this talk of video games makes me want to pick up on my many games I'm currently playing.

@jingles. Great shopping trip. Used my coupon on VS..."

I love DSW. My favorite is hitting the clearance section to see what I can find :D

@Karsyn A GR type for video games would be awesome! I saw you mention Skyrim. I love that game. It's so immersive! What other types of video games do you play?

Good morning, guys! Or afternoon if you happen to be in the Eastern time zone.

@jingles The haircut went really well! The only part he didn't like was when the stylist was getting his damp so she could trim it. He kept scowling at her, heh. Other than that, he was rather fascinated by the whole process and he came out looking very handsome :)

Sorry I have not joined into the conversation earlier. My name is Victoria and I am originally from Ohio but moved to Dallas 9 years ago to finished up my degree and ended up staying..."

Hi, Victoria! I'm in Ohio, currently, though we're soon about to relocate to New Mexico. I'm ready for some warmer winters.

Morning, teammates! Up with the kiddo and getting him ready for his first haircut. I don't foresee it going well, haha. My son doesn't like to sit still for any length of time unless food is involved. Even then, it's iffy if he'll actually stop moving.

Hope your shopping trip went well, Maritza!

jingles, great job on your 5K! That is awesome progress :)

Deedee, I hope dinner and Doctor Who were great. My friends have been trying to get me to watch Doctor Who for ages, but it's hard for me to marathon watch TV shows. One day, maybe.

No big plans, besides the haircut, for us today. We'll probably watch some football, even though our team (Go Pack Go!) has a bye this week. My other team (Go Bucks!) kicked butt yesterday!

Hope everyone has a great Sunday :)

I'm definitely interested! I've been reading and hearing a lot about this book.

Good afternoon, everyone! Just got back from the gym and a late breakfast :) It's kind of overcast here in Ohio and the kiddo is down for a nap, so I think I'll cuddle under a blanket with my current book. Right now I'm finishing up The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest, which I'm having a bit of a time getting through. It's not holding my interest as much as the second book in the series did.

Other than that, no big plans for this weekend, which is fine by me. What about everyone else?

S?

Hi, James! Welcome :)

Hi, Joanne! It is really rare to meet another MLS outside of work, lol. Immunohematology has to be my second favorite section, after Microbiology. Good luck to your team in the upcoming challenge!

M, that is always a great feeling getting a nice big book haul. I can't go into a bookstore without leaving without one or two books. And that's if I'm being good.

That is awesome, Maritza! Keep up the great work! I really need to keep a food log, as well, because I know food is a big issue for me. At least all the unhealthy food that I love.

Good morning, all!

Being woken up by anything when you're not ready sucks. I'm sorry that happened to you! We're the exact opposite on our house with the phone situation. I know I've become super attached to my cellphone. It's bad!

That is awesome, jingles! That is a great accomplishment! Keep up the good work :) I've recently started trying to work on my fitness, as well. Going to the gym sucks, but I know it'll be good for me in the end.

N?
