Currently..

Let's do a bit of a life-catch up, shall we?

Currently I am...

Obsessing Over: my new Chromecast. I've been seeing commercials for it for a few months and finally decided to test it out today. Oh cow you guys, this is awesome! Yes, it will probably only be used for Netflix and YouTube, but now Sam and Dean Winchester will be on a bigger screen than my iPad or laptop. That's a win in my book.

Does anyone else have one of these? Or am I late to the party? Because I'm completely amazed.


Reading:  How I Paid for College: A Novel of Sex, Theft, Friendship, and Musical Theater. This book is outrageously hilarious! It's about a teenager in the 80's, living in New Jersey, and trying to figure out how to pay for his Juliard tuition after his dad announces he won't be paying it unless his son goes into something boring like business. A book about a bunch of theater nerds? Yes, please!

How I Paid for College (Edward Zanni, #1)

I'm also reading a book for a review coming up on Friday, and listening to Magic Bites on audio. However, How I Paid for College is the best of the three thus far!

Mad About:  Have you heard of GOMI? (Get Off My Internets) It's a site basically where people rant about blogs and websites they hate. I've heard about it a bit and was curious. There was nothing on there about me (one of the perks of not being a "cool" blogger), but I did see some pretty awful things about some other bloggers whom I LOVE. Some I even consider to be friends, or at least have had some great conversations with. Don't you all have something better to do than rant about blogs? Seriously. There's enough hate in this world. Yeah, there are some blogs I'm not a fan of either, but I'm not going to rant about them for all of the world to see.

Wondering:  Two things actually. 1) I'm thinking of doing a Q&A post. I realized not long ago some of my newer readers don't know much about me (like my disability) and some of my other readers might have questions they've been wanting to ask. Anyone interested? 2) I also want to host a link-up soon, but the last time I tried it was a total flop because I messed it up. Can anyone show me how?

Wanting: My friend Julie to not have a meeting tomorrow. Wednesday is supposed to be our girls night, but she has a meeting. It's super sad.

Listening to: Or at least I'm wanting to listen to, the revival cast of Les Miserables. The actor who is playing Jean Valjean (Ramin Karimloo) sang on Katie Couric today and WOW his voice is amazing. I could listen to him sing "Bring Him Home" all day. He also was nominated for a Tony for his performance in Les Miserables this morning. So awesome!


Waiting:  to hear where my friends at the seminary are heading next. Today was "call day" where all of the students studying to be pastors find out where their first call at a church will be. It's pretty exciting.

Loving:  my new haircut! I've been itching to do a bit of a change recently and was finally able to this past weekend. What do you think?


So... how's your life?
