A few things

I can't in good conscience post on both of my other blogs (and start a new travel blog) and not post on this one.
I haven't figured out what I'm going to talk about yet.
I thought about doing one of those "30 day journal prompts" or something where I go on and on for pages and pages about things that no one else wants to read about.  But I don't want to do that.
I guess I'll just do a little something about what I'm into right now. Not that you want to read about that either.

British television
I'm always into British television.  Luthor, Doctor Who, Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares (the British one, the American one is rubbish...but I still watch that one too), Sherlock, Downton Abbey, a little Top Gear, Rosemary and Thyme (if you haven't seen it, look it up! it's ridiculously awful and amazing. Whole thing's on Netflix Instant) the Graham Norton Show, etc etc etc.  I am sure there are plenty more shows that I can't watch because I'm on this side of the Pond, but these are just a few that I can watch and do.  I watch some online and I watch a lot of BBC America (which played "the Patriot" the other day, and that made me laugh).  Pretty much the only two stations that I ever really watch on television are Food Network and BBC America. Okay, three, occasionally the Travel Channel.

Unpacking my house
I wouldn't exactly say that I'm "into" doing this, but as it's a necessary thing to do, I'm doing it. I must say, I am enjoying finally being down in Burgaw again.

J.K. Rowling's new book A Casual Vacancy
It's p.r.e.t.t.y. good.  It's all a bit strange, not that it's a strange novel, but... let me see if I can explain without breaking down the storyline.  It has a plot, for sure, but it's more about character development than anything else.  She really dives into the lives of these people and shows their personalities with such a rawness that is amazing. But at the same time, I am sucked into the plot. Love it.

Thinking about buying an RV and going RVing
I want to see America. And I think that doing that in an RV sounds pretty fun. I mean, it's a car and a bedroom and a kitchen and a bathroom all rolled into one! Plus a living room.  Who wouldn't love that??  But as we don't even own a house yet, it's not likely that we will own a RV any time soon, but by golly I am certainly allowed to daydream about it.  I even have some trips planned out. 

Blogging
I haven't really blogged since February, and I've gotten re-energized about doing it.  I go through phases, so I'm sure that this phase will end as well, but as for right now, I'm into making things current.

And, as I write that last section, I've lost my groove for this post.
The end.

I'll do it.

After 5 hours of blogging on our family blog, I'm a little tired of blogging, but I did want to say that I am officially going to blog more. Yes, you've all heard it before, and yes, it may be short-lived, but I will do it. I will do it. I WILL DO IT! Okay? I'll do it.

But as both Brandon and I are sick (my sickness being the 2nd cold I've had in 3 weeks) I won't be doing a huge post right now. But I will blog more. Honest.

For real.

Promise.

Hope you're satisfied with just a post with a photo from Doctor Who today.

...7 months later...

I suppose this isn't a "record keeping" blog like our family blog, so I guess that it doesn't matter too much that there's a big gap... but let me fill you in on what has happened since April 6th really quickly -
Broke my ankle
Got a job at Kroger Pharmacy
Healed my ankle
Moved to Roanoke
Quit my job at Kroger Pharmacy

That's 7 months in a nut shell. I kinda wish that I could literally put those in a picture of a nut shell to be cute, but my fingers are cold and don't want to work right, so I don't feel like doing anything other than the bare minimum of typing.

I do want to show you what the view out of my window is right now:

This is what it usually looks like:




 The world looks cool at 8 am - I should view it more often. :) It's a lot prettier than it is late at night. At least around here.

Anyway.
I also did want to mention the fact that
 has come out and yes, I have finished it already, and yes, I loved it. But I didn't really care for the Catwoman gameplay. Just sayin'.

Um. That's it for now :) I think. Pretty sure.
Nope, I wanted to mention the coming and passing of Dr. Who season 6
and how much I adore Doctor Who.

And I love this commercial:

That's all. For now.
