This Is Why I Shouldn’t Receive Books For Christmas
Filed in Christmas, January 13, 2009, 1:09 pmI have had my nose buried in the new Stephen King that I got for Christmas, it was fantastic!

Excuses, Excuses…
Filed in Christmas, December 17, 2008, 1:20 pmI keep making excuses when anybody asks me “what ya been doing, you haven’t blogged?” or if asked like I was recently if I am slacking because unlike last year when I had a flurry of things to write about Christmas, this year I have done very few.
