I'm back!

Didja miss me? I bet not, which is the wondrous anonymity of the online world :)

I have a bazillion emails to read and calls to return, and class starts tonight (Arabic IV, yay me!), plus I haven't checked anyone else's blog for a week. Did I miss any exciting Romance-blog brouhahas? Or was it just the same old stuff?

Stuff I did: self-tour of the Cape Cod Potato Chip factory in Hyannis; whale watching in Provincetown; day trip to Nantucket; ate much clam chowder and several lobster rolls, along with some marvelous scallops and a glorious oatmeal-cashew-raisin cookie; rode a bike all around -- ouch to my bum, but I'm reminded how much I love bike-riding. I took some photos which I won't inflict on people (unless they ask, which is what I do in real life, too).

I also read many, many books while lounging on the beach and the deck. I will inflict my opinions about these books on you poor abused readers, though. Reviews or just opinions will be posted as I have time, but first -- I read Kate Rothwell's ebook release Knight's Challenge from Samhain Publishing and really liked it a lot. Go buy a copy right now!

More later. And maybe even a Smart Bitches Day post for Beth if I get to it!

PS: The Biochemist is an evil EVOL woman. She has me totally hooked on Supernatural now. I had a serious WTF moment while reading Nevermore, and I think I may have to order the DVDs because Netflix is too freakin' slow.

Just a tease...

Okay, here's the list of stuff that I read or attempted to read while on vacation. Before you wonder how I managed to read that much, remember that I spent 3 days of the vacation lounging on the beach or on the deck.

I also listened to HP7. And I wonder why Jim Dale chose for Bellatrix Lestrange to have a French accent. She's thoroughly English, despite the (married) last name, and her sisters (both speaking parts in the book) don't speak with French accents.
