Laura Lulu (lauralulu) | 1603 comments Lol. I should do this.

But I don't want to.

But...it means I can fart around organizing my challenges page...hmmm...decisions, decisions...


message 5: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments LMAO! I'm almost regretting putting this together! It's quite scary when I look at it like that, plus, I have the "Firsts" challenge and still have to fill in book choices for the "Pick It For Me: Spin-Off". Yikes!


message 6: by Judithe, Soap Operas never end.... (new)

Judithe | 6566 comments Heehehehehehehe! And the next challenge is "Read books that fit into 4 (5?) or more of your other current challenges!"


message 7: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments Seriously, right?! Sounds like a plan. LOL!

And stop laughing at me, that's not nice! Ya'll just need to make your "master list" for the rest of 2010 and let see who's is worse. :) I like that idea!


message 8: by Judithe, Soap Operas never end.... (new)

Judithe | 6566 comments I was thinking I just need to do that...but not sure I have the energy today! I still think you've got me beat though!


message 9: by Laura Lulu (new)

Laura Lulu (lauralulu) | 1603 comments I'll make my master list tomorrow at work. The hubby was home today--he's a union pipefitter and the laborers were striking & they don't cross picket lines, and they're supposed to be striking until next Thursday. Argh. Husband home AND no paycheck? Double argh.

Anywho, I don't get to sit on the computer like a lazy slug for hours when he's home. Well, I could, but he doesn't need to know about that, right? Lol.


message 10: by Judithe, Soap Operas never end.... (new)

Judithe | 6566 comments Hmmm....I do the lazy slug bit while mine is snoozing in front of the TV...and other times too! No complaining allowed then!

Laura Lulu (lauralulu) | 1603 comments I so have you beat--I have 65 to read by the end of the year. Lol.

Laura's "Oh Shit" List

Judithe | 6566 comments ROFL! I am so out of the running for the 2010 TBR Crown Race! Good luck! (I've only got 41 or so, plus some undecided for longer challenges...if I add them in it might even scare me--blank spaces that I still have to find books and count them up for! I'm sticking with my easy "41" for a number)


message 14: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments OMG ROFLMAO!! LOVE it, "oh shit" list! :D

Yes, Join Us, Judithe! One is the loneliest # ....


message 15: by Judithe, Soap Operas never end.... (new)

Judithe | 6566 comments sheepish look...I sort of made up my list...gave up cause not sure how to count the undecided ones...

I have knocked off one, almost two though! satisfied pat on the back

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments Ok, I've been driving myself nuts over this. Could someone please compare post #12 (above) against my "challenges TBR" shelf and find what's off? The shelf has 57 and post #12 has 61 and I'm now cross-eyed! LOL!

Not to mention since joining RRR's Relay challenge I will never be keeping my self-promise to not add any new books TBR for 2010. So, here's that (crazy woman's) thought going down the drain. @ *poof* LOL! I'm over stressin' and back to LET'S READ!!


message 17: by Literary Ames (new)

Literary Ames (amyorames) | 1854 comments Post #12 has Sin Undone twice, in row 2 and 4. On the shelf you're missing Spider's Bite and Embers. That leaves one more that should be on your shelves, ah I can't see it!


message 18: by Literary Ames (last edited Jul 12, 2010 03:03AM) (new)

Literary Ames (amyorames) | 1854 comments Oh I see it! I see it! You also have Beneath the Skin twice in post #12! Phew, that was gonna bug me if I couldn't find it. It's in row 2 and 4 again.


message 19: by Judithe, Soap Operas never end.... (new)

Judithe | 6566 comments Amy is a goddess!

And, tsk, tsk, tsk....it sounds like you found ANOTHER challenge, Steph! (And if I weren't writing torturous final exams for my students between books, I'd be doing the same thing too... ;) )


message 20: by Steph, Serious series addict (last edited Jul 12, 2010 06:01PM) (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments LOL I knew I could find someone to help me out w/this! Thanks, Ames! :)

*hides from Judithe* Ok, yes, I have joined another challenge, but those books aren't even the reason that monstrosity of a list grew. I somehow missed books that were already in on-going challenges.

I organized my GR shelves and created a new one called "challenges - TBR" so I could verify (hence the problem above) what was listed there (and to better help me pick books for the newest challenge I joined *ducks head*). Only to find that while my post #12 above had come down to something like 40+ it was supposed to be 57+/-! LMAO!


message 21: by Steph, Serious series addict (last edited Jul 12, 2010 06:05PM) (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments Yay! All matchy-matchy now. :D Thanks!
Grand Total (as of 10:15a JT 7/13/10 anyway) is 59!


message 22: by Judithe, Soap Operas never end.... (new)

Judithe | 6566 comments Go Steph, go! What fun! I hope that's a list to the end of the year! I might do the shelf bit...did that for my lifetime books and it has made that one much easier for deciding on books and fitting them into other challenges... :)


message 23: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments Yeah, that's through till 12/31/10. At least I think it's accurate, knowing me I've missed some.

Oh the "challenge - TBR" shelf I created is going to come in REAL handy running RRR's "relay challenge". Hopefully it'll allow me to squeeze more than one challenge out of each book. :)


message 24: by Judithe, Soap Operas never end.... (new)

Judithe | 6566 comments Good luck!


message 25: by Steph, Serious series addict (new)

Steph (angel4492) | 32703 comments Thanks :) U2!


message 26: by Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required (new)

Sandra | 25908 comments Excellent idea Steph. I'll have to see if I have the energy tomorrow to do the same. You know that takes away more reading time don't you. Don't you, you bad, bad girl. Lol.

Oooh you're going to read two of my favorite series... Chicagoland Vampires and Enchanted Inc

I'm anxious to read both since I've heard nothing but rave reviews for each. I think you mentioned Enchanted Inc to me many moons ago and I'm just now getting around to it.

LOL! Sorry, but it will help out in the long run, promise. :)
