Book Review & Personal Blog

As some of you know, I won a $20 gift certificate for Wicked Wines Online from Theresa Meyers as part of a contest at Patricia’s Vampire Notes.

Well, I bought my package, paid the few bucks left over, and am now the proud owner of this:

As you can see, I went for the Vampire Cabernet Sauvignon and a Vampire wines wine glass. All together, it came to about $28 with shipping and handling.

Considering the delicate nature of what I had being sent to me, the package came in immaculate condition (as you can see). Not a single nick or crack in the bottle of the thin wine glass.

I forgot to post about this before St. Patrick’s Day!

In the mail, I got sent a lovely green St. Patrick’s Day package from IZEA, the guys who bring us PayPerPost and SocialSpark. It was a bit rattly, so I was worried that something inside was broken. When I got home and opened up the package, this is what was inside:

What was included? Man, TONS of stuff… I got a tshirt, a shamrock necklace, a green beer glass necklace, an Irish necklace, a lollipop, a sticker, a temporary tattoo, a pin, a pencil, a mint, four green fortune cookies, and two cans of Blu Frog energy drink.

Thanks IZEA!

I got my copy of Sunday at Tiffany’s by James Patterson in the mail on the 30th. I didn’t realize it had come until about 9pm. I went outside and there it was on the porch resting against the house. Oops. I was very happy to open it up and pull the nice new book out.

I got a big delivery of books today. Tied up with a rubber band was three different wrapped packages, each one containing a book. This is what I got:

Can’t wait to read!

Alfee and I went to Colonial Williamsburg earlier this month. We have year passes, so we can come and go as we please. On one of our trips, I decided to bring a small disposable camera along. I don’t have my digital camera yet (hoping to get it this weekend), so they’re simple Kodak single use camera shots.

You guys know that one thing I don’t do a lot of here are memes. I think a lot of the time they are just silly and I don’t have the patience to sit down and do them. But, occasionally, I see one that does seem interesting or that I just can’t help but do.

For your sake and the front page of this blog, I will put the list under a cut.
