CLAMP Campus Adventures

I have to clean today (and all week). We have my sister coming on Friday and that Pampered Chef party on Sunday next week and the place is a disaster area. Blech. Anyone interested in the party, there’s free food and no obligation to buy anything. Just drop me a line. It’ll be 1 pm.

New book to read: Fish! is a short book, so I suppose I’ll be getting to the Eddings book displayed in my future readings shortly. No, I didn’t buy either. Fish! was a loaner from Borders (it’s nice having a boyfriend who works there) and the Eddings was from the local library. I haven’t heard [...]

I read Incubus Dreams while traveling to and from Nashville on business. I enjoyed it despite my misgivings on Laurell K.

I am so getting either the iPaq or the Treo 650 for Christmas. I don’t think I can deal with the crap Nokia keyboard for much longer than that.

Here’s the phone calls I’ve had to make this morning: Suffolk Campus Police – No, they don’t have my cellphone. T-Mobile – I lost my cellphone. I got the number to make the claim and they shut off my cellphone so it can’t be used. Yes, that means I lost your phone number. Assurian Insurance [...]
