    ...every woman I know is whacking off to 50 Shades, and I'm reading Abercrombie's The Heroes.

    You don't know me. Hi, I'm Teresa!

    Now that you know me I'll tell you I am not reading that book. I read a sample and discovered it read like a high school kid wrote it and I have plenty of my own imagination rather than read poorly written smut. I'm finishing the Hunger Games actually.

    Oh, and nice to meet you.

    besides, if you want to read poorly written erotica its free online and has been since like, 1996.

    The major inspiration for my name change came from this song.

    Haha never even thought to put the inspiration behind my name in this thread...

    If you don't know, just look up Bregalad...

    Oh god, now do ours, we have a medium sized moving box FULL of card boxes. But...so lazy.... Plus I think we both vaguely believe we might start playing again.

    If I lived closer...no prob....but.......since I don't, start looking up various cards on Ebay, see what you might get for them, and sell them your selves. I haven't played in 11 years...but I still have a huge collection.

    noooo so painful. plus its mostly a huge volume of crap, stuff we'd have to sell for 50 cents. too much work.

    I got to Chapter 8 so far and can't figure out why everyone wants to read this book. It is so cheesy.. like a smutty harlequin book in a nice cover. I don't think I am going to bother finishing it.

    That was my impression of it, BUT - in fairness to those reading it right now - I have also read plenty of trash in my life (I went through this phase my sr year in HS where I read one to two smutty romance novels per day) and I doubt its worse than some of the trash I've read, its just that I kind of filled up on it years ago so now its not interesting. I might have been very interested 10 years ago.

    I finally decided to get the comics i ordered over the last sayyyyy 15 months or so and get them together before bagging, boarding with calcium board and cataloguing them, then boxing them - then i can start reading them. I need to catch up on Avengers I have every issue through to Siege and Dark Reign and now vs X-Men. I think i've only read issues 1-12 so far, i hate that life gets in the way sometimes :laugh:

    Nah, I hear it's BDSM, and that doesn't turn me on. Must get the latest Black Dagger Brotherhood book, though...

    I refuse to pollute my mind with anything Twilight based (I mean, I lost brain cells just from seeing 10 minutes of the first movie) so I will not subject myself to losing any more from reading ****ty fanfic.

    Ah, Supernatural. *sigh* :D

    because I brought my DS to work today to play Professor Layton, and have been spending the last few hours of my job drawing Bowser and other Mario Bros. characters on the scrap pieces of paper around the office.



    And because I was watching Regular Show until about 12 last night.

    Today I'm a nerd because...
    My 9 year old keeps bugging me to play Skyrim, and even though I've already "finished" it... I'm going to play it anyway, in hopes that I'll be able to unlock something new.. *sigh* good luck with that...

    Dawnguard will be out soon.. If that helps, was at E3

    Earlier after my walk I misplaced my Polar HRM. the small dongle thing that attaches to the chest strap. Looked for a good hour before I decided to stop being lazy and pick up my living room. found it within 3 mins of doing so. afterwards I was happy and danced around listening to this:

    I'm a nerd today because I can't pass lavender without wanting to "harvest" it, and I experience a momentary panic when a bird or airplane flies overhead casting a big shadow.
