Roller coasters!!! WOOT!!

I can no longer so round and round type of rides :( But I can still handle heights and fast type of rides! We did n't make it to our local amusement park this summer, first time in 10 years we haven't gone!

I can't handle the twirly rides any more either. But, I still try to do the rollercoasters.

That is fantastic, Karen!

Gravity: AMAZING. I haven't watched such a terrifying movie in a long time! Perfect for Halloween without being gory or gross. Even the dead people didn't look that bad. It's all about survival, and wanting to die and give up, and then making every effort not to do just that. I wouldn't be surprised if Sandra Bullock gets nominated again.

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

YAY! Sounds amazing, thanks Jen!

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Hahaha! Sorry for making you jealous :) I don't feel sorry for me either, but I did want to finish the movie lol! And as much as I love travelling, there are plenty of downsides! Living out of a suitcase, long flights with 5-hour middle of the night layovers (like in Dubai where Adele and I were shivering at 3am waiting for our flight).

Oh and a couple of days ago we got attacked by monkeys and Adele's head got knocked into a pole and another girl got bitten! And getting to the island we are on was CRAZY. In a rainstorm we had to take a longboat, which we had to wade to waist-high while carrying a backpack each and our wheelie bags over our heads. Everything was drenched and then they dumped us back into the water and we had to scramble up the beach like drowned rats to find our hotel. It's been raining for 48 hours and the forecast says it will rain for another week lol! To get from our hotel room to the hotel lobby, we have to wade through a pond that's formed on the path (yeah, with fishes and stuff, not sure where THEY came from).

I'm not complaining, because these are all awesome experiences that I'll remember forever, but sometimes travelling isn't all it's cracked up to be!

(PS- we didn't have any issues in Santorini, Greece, and it was three of the most wonderful weeks of the trip, so I hope you get to go there Jen!)

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

Yeah, Greece would be amazing! Always wanted to go there! :)

Woot, woot to a very productive day! Was a fall cleaning kind of day, I spend a good chunk of it cleaning out the storage shed in the backyard, got it about half done! Also cleaned out my closet! I actually have room to put stuff in there now!

Not as exciting as watching Gravity or wading through huge puddles in Thailand, but I love that feeling when you get projects done!

The adventures of traveling! You know, you should document those travels via your blog. You'd be an awesome travel blogger.

[Glitchieyt]

Was gravity any that good? I'm kinda suspicious of George's acting in it.

Hehe! Adele is taking notes and might write a book about our adventures later :)

Oh Jenny, that sounds sooooo good! I haven't had one of those in forever.

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

ha! Woot for macaroons, love them!

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

Me either, and I was so in the mood for coconut! I have no idea how many calories I've consumed today in macaroons--but coconut is good for you! ;)

[Gabby]

I don't really like them. Have no idea why, all the people I know do. Oh, but the blueberry ones are pretty good!!

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

LOL!!! Yesterday we had a coconut smoothie in the actual coconut! We found this incredible Local Thai restaurant that is such a good value :) We've eaten there every day for two weeks, lunch and dinner haha!

I love anything blueberry :)

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

LOL that's awesome, David! You and Adele have such great taste ;) Maybe that's why I was in the mood for coconut. One last HURRAH for summer! The temp dropped yesterday, its been rainy and chilly here. Good weather for cuddling up with a blanket, a cup of hot tea, and a book!

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

Hehe thanks :) We're making our way back to Sydney, where summer will be starting soon lol!! We've been hiding from winter for a long time!

[Karen’s Library]

I'm happy to say that I hide from winter EVERY year!! ;-)

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

LOL!

[Jen]

I was just thinking today that I'd like to be living in a tiny town on a beach somewhere - as I passed by the endless cornfields, all of which have been apparently fertilized with some abhorrent substance which smells atrocious. Beach. I'm going to the beach and warm weather in my mind. Give me Key West or some island down there, hurricanes be damned!

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

I HATE winter!!! I live in the wrong part of the world for it! lol EVERY YEAR, sometime in January, Darryl and I are like...yeah, we are moving south before next winter! Then, by the time June hits, we are like: Yeah, it wasn't THAT bad! We are tough, we can handle it! LOL

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

LOL! We all have short memories when it comes to these things!

My aunt lives in the Keys and loves it, although she's had her house wiped out twice by hurricanes :(

[Karen’s Library]

We all have short memories when it comes to our seasons. I have fabulous winters, but our summers are tough! But when fall and winter and spring are here, we forget all about those 120 degree days we survived! Ahhhh, but it's a DRY heat!!

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

I have 100% book compatibility with Maggie Stiefvater! I just feel so cool right now!

And 90% with Kimberly Derting! 83% with Susan Dennard! This is so much fun!

Jen and I scored SUPER high--95%
David and I were 85% I think?
Karen and I were 75%
And Brooke and I were 84%

Pretty good numbers, guys!

[Karen’s Library]

Wow, I'm the lowest! Cracking up!!

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

Ha! Don't take it personally, Karen, you are still one of my fave people ever! :)

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

I know what it is Karen--you don't read contemporaries! Phew, a logical explanation!

[Karen’s Library]

So mine showed 84% with you and 88% with David.

And that's with the fact that I don't really read contemporary. ;-)

[Karen’s Library]

Jen is 79%. Definately contemporary. Heheheh..

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

HUH I wonder why mine showed lower?? Weirdness. HMMMM

We will go with the 84%, I believe that number more anyways!

[Jenny, Always smiling! :-D]

Karen wrote: "Jen is 79%. Definately contemporary. Heheheh.."

LOL so true I think! Oh well, we don't have to agree on EVERY book...

[David, Mr. Blue Eyes; He's the Best--Ain't no lie!! ;)]

LOL!!! I always love doing this for any new person I meet! And it's NO SURPRISE that I'm so book compatible with all of you awesome people!

[Karen’s Library]

David will be jealous! lol I retweeted your tweet and commented! Nice, Dre, doesn't that feel awesome when the author notices your media and says something?

One time on my blog, Nancy Holder left me a comment after I reviewed a short story by her. I was on cloud 9 for a long time!

I don't think he'll be jealous. I try to keep my fangirling on him on the down low...we're friends now, see? *wink*

I think authors are much more accommodating than celebrities. But really, they are celebrities to us who loves books!
