"Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing. " -Helen Keller

Be Still My Heart


Cartoons Myspace Comments

My geeky, nerdy book loving heart is dancing with joy this month. Today, I'm headed to the Durham County Southwest Regional airport to meet Smart Bitch Sarah and listen to her talk about her book, Everything I know About Love I Learned From Romance Novels, and, on the 23rd of February, my mom and I are taking a little road trip to Charlotte to hear Rachel Simon read from and talk about The Story of Beautiful Girl (what...you haven't read it yet?!?!? Correct that mistake at one AND GO BUY IT). I am so excited to meet these two wonderful ladies and getting to spend time chatting about books is ALWAYS a good thing.


Do you have anything fun or special planned for this month? IF you do, share it with us, please. If not, why the hell not? You are special and deserve fun in your life.

Your trips sound like a lot of fun; I hope you have a great time!

We're planning to go next weekend to see a burlesque show produced by a friend of ours - that counts as special and fun in my world. :) Happy Sunday!

A burlesque show sounds like a blast. Have a wonderful time.
Sounds fun!! I laughed out loud when I read your comment about traveling b/c I am most likely going to have to fly home to NY in the next few weeks, alone with the munchkin. While I am terrified, I KNOW I will survive and I know it will be wonderful blog fodder! Any and all tips welcome!

You'll do great. When my middle son was 10 months old, I packed up him, my 4 1/2 yr old, and flew to Kentucky. I managed to get everything there...miraculously.
Sounds like you're going to have a blast, and yes I will have to check out those books!

Sadly, this month is pretty quiet around the hobbit hole. I'm planning on getting a new haircut... does that count as fun? I am looking forward to whatever my Beloved has planned for our anniversary in April. I love that I don't have to do anything except show up. :)
