A long meandering journey back to... where I was in the first place?!

I started moving into my flat on Sunday, but I was a bit irked when Steve, who had offered to help me, did not return my phone calls all day.

Ironically, by blowing me off, he made my life a lot easier when I started REPACKING my stuff into my car today. Thank you for ignoring me, Steve! :)

Yeah, I just can't live upstairs from a chain smoker. Even from just having my stuff there for 2 days, it smelled of smoke. Yuck. Oh well, guess I'll just keep fishing...

In the meantime, I have a gazillion books on my plate. Beth turned me on to the Anita Blake Vampire Hunter series by Laurell K. Hamilton, and I've read all of them except the newest one, Incubus Dreams. 12 books in 3 months? Addictive, like the bite of a sexy vampire. Hee hee.

What next?

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

Savage Summit: True Stories of the First Five Women who Climbed K2

Kick Start: Cosmic Biker Babe's Guide to Life and Changing the Planet

Mountaineering: The Freedom of the Hills

Proficient Motorcycling

Eiger Dreams: Ventures Among Men and Mountains

How Heavy is the Mountain

And taking a short break from Looking for Alaska

Yes, I love to read. ;) That, and watch as many movies from Netflix as possible! Currently on my plate: Mean Creek and Apocalypse Now

While I'm on a roll, here are a few dogs I would love to have, if I could only FIND A DECENT PLACE TO LIVE!

Oh, and I just thought of something so cool: you could call a mastiff and labrador mixed dog a MASTADOR! So how cool is it that Steve's dog Bear is a Mastador!

Here is a picture of the mighty mastador, Bear:

 

Ever see a dog like this? A greyhound shepherd mix! It just doesn't look right... cute, but like a sickly, skinny shepherd alien dog!

  1. I want you to know that I've officially started referring to Bear as "mastador".  Your fault.  :)

    Mastador of the Universe!

  2. Well...

    You COULD always call him a "labrastiff". But that just sounds weird. :P
