Post. posting. Posssstting. Woot.


Um. Got sick yesterday. Flu = not fun. Thankfully, it's not as bad as I've gotten it before. So, that's good. Still sick today, not as bad as yesterday. But still not 100%. No piano or ballet tomorrow.:-(. Don't know about ballet on Thursday.

Got Lynn Hilary's cd (again, because out of the many times we've scrubbed my computer, it never gets on the place where we save things. >.<. Thankfully, it's on the cheap site...so it's not on iTunes. Woot.) And, she's...just. Awesome. But, how could anyone from Celtic Woman *NOT* be awesome? Except Alex what's-her-name. She's not that great. 

Anyway, the cd has a great mix. Of fast songs, and slow songs. Great to go to sleep to.  speaking from experience, lol. 

Stayed in bed most of yesterday (but alas, had to math in the morning >.<) and finished listening to Ballet Shoes by Noel Streatfield. Another one of my absolute favorite authors, no matter what. I looooove that book. Just the setting..makes me want to do that. Like, live in England, and go to this Theater and Dance academy...then get parts in all the plays that come, and it's just so....yeah. 

But, yeah. Um. Yep. 

You know that person is a good author, when...it feels real (of course) that you're there, and you then want to go an do those things yourself. Or whatever. That made no sense. 

Um. I like listening to books...I still like to read them, but I superly enjoy listening to them. It's great for knitting, lol. And laying in bed wishing everything would just go away. It's even better when the person narrating is just...awesome. or British. Like, the lady doing Ballet Shoes. Her voice...is very comforting when...it's a good time for it, lol.

and. yeah. I'll leave this now. what do you prefer? The actual book, the audio, or it depends on your mood?
