Fic-y Goodness

MMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. What's better than Chocolate?
Reading an Allison Kenyon Dark-Hunter novel, then finding that Cinco has written another Chapter of her G/S AU fic, and that Ardath is getting ready to unleash more Riddick-Goodness upon us, her loving (and slightly impatient) fans.
Yay, Spring!!

Although... you know what my Uber-wish is.
I want to wake up to a phone call that says Barrage will be in town for a week and they are comping me front-row seats.

And a cat.

Hee.

I am now licensed...

... to DRIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whee! I took the Road Test and passed in the high 90's. Missed the thing where you have to drop your speed by five mph when you see a SLOW CHILDREN sign. I did not know about that one. Now I know, and knowing is half the battle!

So now the hunt is on for a Used Car. I've been doing my Consumer Reports research; I can use my library database access to read back issues of CR, and I've printed out lots of info from their Used Car Ratings issue.
If I had my druthers, I'd get the Hybrid Prius or Civic. I'm such a tree hugger. Literally, too- just hugged a maple in the backyard yesterday. Hee.

Anywho. Watched Animal Planet's DRAGONS program last night, having taped it Sunday PM. It was fabulous. Patrick Stewart narrated, and the CGI was gorgeous. I think I'll just have to order the pattern from Smallworks as soon as I get a job.
The hunt for work continueth. I have not heard from the agency recently (since January/February, in fact) and I would love to know WHY. Also haven't heard from Office Depot. Bleah. Mom says to call 'em up and ask why not; I'm still to shy. I should though, shouldn't I?

J's got a blogspot, too, now.
Erynn's a LiveJournal user.
Cowboy Mouth has a new album out. GET IT.
And I just wrapped up reading Maureen O'Hara's autobiography, 'Tis Herself.
