Good Morning... Or should I say, Good rainy morning. The current temperature in the ATL is 45 degrees... and it is raining. Maaaannnn, I KNOW I should've taken off the entire week of Thanksgiving. UGH. But, that's okay. I have a short work week - 2 days. And they are going to WORK my tail. All 16-18 hours worth. (And that's ALL I'm working). My weekend . I had a nice weekend. I only left the house...

You know, I love Saturdays. And the only thing I don't like about them is that they are over much too soon. Saturdays need to be 100 hours long or something like that. LOL Anyway, I am STILL in bed. Shame on ME. Not really. I am BONE TIRED. We worked very hard yesterday. I work from 10-7 pm, and around 5:30, I started hollering all over the place: "Ya'll done got down! Ya'll done worked a broad...

I went through a reading slump recently that was kind of driving me crazy. Really, it started in Halifax. I optimistically packed several books in my suitcase and then George and I ended up at a Chapters bookstore (oh Chapters, how I missed you) so I bought myself a copy of Keeping Faith by Jodi Picoult. What a crazy person I was. There was no time for reading! Not really, anyway. I did manage to...

For The Fat Asshole I Almost Hit on My Bike "Well for one thing you're going the wrong way" "I know," I say, "I know I'm going the wrong way" I feel like all the people who were just kicked out of the library for looking at porn Who are they kidding when they claim a banana is a "solid food" Hello, we're calling from the Suburban Station Lost and Found office...

Rent It My Sister's Keeper: There's no denying the powerful themes on display in My Sister's Keeper ; parents will have some hard times watching the movie about a childhood leukemia victim. On the other hand this movie, adapted from Jodi Picoult's novel, has been fairly radically altered from its printed form - the gist is the same, the ending quite different - something that may rankle purists looking...

After reading six books straight from the Narnia series, I felt I needed a good dose of adult realism. Ahh, Jodi Picoult, just the ticket, get myself immersed in some real life issues and away from children's fantasy and C. S. Lewis' Biblical retelling. Like the other Picoult books I have read, this one deals with some social, medical, political; and, to my dismay, religious issues. While it is certainly...

So, I guess I have to post today, hunh? I don't get the weekend off? The HORROR!! LOL. No horror. I can always come up with something. It is VERY cold this morning. If I heard the weatherman right, it is like, 30 degrees or something like that. This means I need to stay in the bed under this down comforter... all day. Uh, no. I got stuff to do today. And that's the topic for the Saturday Seven. 1....

THE NOTEBOOK's Nick Cassavetes directs another tearjerking literary adaptation with this drama based on Jodi Picoult's novel. Cameron Diaz takes a detour from comedy to play Sara, the domineering mother of Kate (Sofia Vassilieva, MEDIUM), a young girl with cancer. Saras other daughter, 11-year-old Anna (Abigail Breslin), was conceived just to serve as a donor for her sick sister. On the outskirts...

Yesterday saw my office raising funds for Breast Cancer Awareness month with a coffee morning and book sale. I decided to don pink hijab as I do every year and turned up to work to find everyone else had forgotten. A colleague bought me a pink cupcake and we had a look around the table full of books people had brought in. All of the books that looked interesting I had read (A Suitable Boy by Vikram...
