When You're Laid Up In Bed...It's A Great Time to Get Some Reading Done.

Or so I found. It started with a sore throat and I ended up staying bed for practically a week. I think I had the flu. Finally I went to the doctor and he said I have iron deficiency anemia and maybe a cold. Okay. Anyway I finished reading about 18 books from 3/18-3/29. That's always cool because I love to read. Here is a list of my reading:
  1. To Wed A Scandalous Spy by Celeste Bradley A+
  2. Wild At Heart by Patricia Gaffney A+
  3. The Care and Feeding of Pirates by Jennifer Ashley A++
  4. The Temptation by Claudia Dain A
  5. The Knave and The Maiden by Blythe Gifford A-
  6. Fallen by Emma Jensen B+
  7. A Notorious Love by Sabrina Jeffries A
  8. The Reasons for Marriage (Short Story in Rogue's Reform) by Stephanie Laurens B+
  9. The Forbidden Lord by Sabrina Jeffries A
  10. A Marriage Worth Waiting For by Susan Fox B+
  11. The Ugly Duckling by Brenda Hiatt A
  12. Some Enchanted Evening by Christina Dodd A++
  13. The Sun And The Moon by Patricia Ryan A+
  14. The Mercenary's Kiss by Pam Crooks A+
  15. Winter Woman by Jenna Kernan A+
  16. In The King's Service by Margaret Moore A
  17. Captured Innocence by Susan Sizemore A
  18. A Rake's Vow by Stephanie Laurens B-
  19. Once A Warrior by Karyn Monk A+

Well at least I got something done although I'm laid up. Most of the books I read were good. Some were great. Some were on the dry side. The B and B- are the ones I found dry. But most of the books really took my mind of feeling like crap. I do love romance novels. Thank God for them!

Perhaps a little morbid of me, but I have been thinking a lot about death lately. I am a Christian, and I believe in life after death. I believe in eternal life with God after death. But there's still a part of me that wonders if life isn't just a cosmic joke. A part of me that fears that black oblivion of death. I think sleep is a good thing, but there are other things that I would prefer to do. I sleep because if I don't I am tired and I don't function well. The reason why I write this is because I think of death sometimes like sleep. If there is life after death (which I believe and choose to believe in), then death is just a long nap. But if for some reason death is the end, then it's a really scary thought that there's no waking up from that dark cloud of nothingness. My problem is that I am a worrier. I am pathological about it, actually. I am so bad about it, I memorized most of the scriptures that deal with worrying. It's like in that movie Inventin...

That writing bug has hit me again... I am finally recovering from a really, really long spell of writer's block. I have some good ideas swirling around in my brain. Think "Dreamcatcher", Jonesy's brain. That's how mine is. Well I'm wanting to do a Victorian Historical Romance series with a serious action/adventure edge. I'm thinking it's going to have some elements of the Orient, complete with stolen swords. Actually I have at least ten Victorian books in me since I love that time period. There's so many opportunities. Egypt, China, and that's not even talking Scottish men! Think Gerard Butler and a bluestocking spinster chock full of Victorian moral sensibilities. Intriguing.... Now I just need to set my arse down and write. Also I discovered a new classic Horror writer: George MacDonald, who happens to be a Christian writer. I need to pick him up. He has a book called Lilith, based on the old myth about Adam's wife. It's guaranteed to...

My Blond Yummy Gallery Includes: Rupert Penry-Jones Luke Goss Douglas Henshall Thomas Kretschmann Phillip Winchester Sunday is a Good Day Did you enjoy the gallery of Blond hotness? Don't forget Quantam of Solace comes out this weekend. Can you say Daniel Craig you have washboard abs I could bounce a quarter off of? You probably wouldn't say that, but I will. I am so feeling blond men lately. But I guess they are becoming hotter as I get older. I am just chilling today. Trying to get over this cold I caught. It could be worse, though. I have to get up very early tomorrow to go back to work after spending last week in Mississippi for a work conference. Unfortunately the hotel we had to stay in was a fleabag. It is so nice to be home in my own bed and clean house. The good news is I spent the week with some hot guys (in the books, unfortunately). I read the following books last week: Sale or Return Bride by Sarah Morgan Ice Storm by Anne Stuart Surrender by Pamela Clare Dark Desi...
