It's the future I remember thinking about as a kid. <BR/><BR/>I get you on the blonde thing. Right now, I'm wearing a visor when I walk (or slog) because the last time I ran regularly my hair did sun-bleach nicely. I hate the dishwater thing, too. But, I dislike chemicals, so I've been putting off highlighting.Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-62816943124416956592009-03-10T19:47:00.000-05:002009-03-10T19:47:00.000-05:00And now the month is a third over.

I'm really bad about stressing over deadlines, too, although I go through phases during which I just happily rip through tons of review books. Then, I seem to hit the proverbial wall. I'm trying to back off on the ARCs, too -- so far, not doing a great job of it.Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-17705973342484244072009-03-08T18:11:00.000-05:002009-03-08T18:11:00.000-05:00Glad that you are getting back to reading!

Thanks for the laugh! Have you read anything by Simon Van Booy? That comment made me think of his writing. <BR/><BR/>A toast to list-making and calendars, the only things that keep me from missing absolutely everything I need to accomplish. If you don't keep a do-list, I highly recommend giving lists a go. ;)<BR/><BR/>Nat,<BR/><BR/>I went rushing out to my local bookstore and they said they could order As Shadows Fade and get it by March 19. March 19??? I said, "No thank you," and had hubby pick up a copy on his way home from the airport, in Jackson. I hope yours arrives soon. It's miserable waiting for a book you know you'll love to arrive!<BR/><BR/>Kathy,<BR/><BR/>Believe it or not, I actually remembered to Spring Forward, probably because it's been mentioned by people in my marathon group, a couple of times (in reference to the changing light -- our coach runs in the evening and hates the dark, for one thing). It's good to hang out with other humans! <BR/><BR/>I'm always thrilled when my posts make anyone laugh. Thanks for telling me. :)<BR/><BR/>Kailana,<BR/><BR/>I think some of us are just naturally worse than others. LOL I've always been a list-maker. The trouble is that sometimes I don't remember to write everything down on my list.Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-49932525117526697422009-03-08T10:42:00.000-05:002009-03-08T10:42:00.000-05:00Yeah, I am forgetful at the best of times.

It's never fun when you can't read.

I have to learn how to take notes done and then remember to read them.
