Suddenly Last Summer

We went to Rehoboth Beach last weekend with friends and had a good time. I can't believe it was the only beach trip we've made yet this year. I hope to also go once to Ocean City after Labor Day, after the prices drop, but before it gets too cold to go in the water.

I don't have pictures from the July camping trip up yet, let alone beach pictures, but here is a picture of tonight's injury:



See my purple toe, second from the left? Tomorrow morning we'll see if I can move it, because tonight I can't and it hurts like #$^@.

I'm up to 23 books read for the year, which is the most since 2007. It feels good to be reading a lot and I hope it will get me in the mood to write some, myself, for Nanowrimo in November.

Facebook Fail

For all this personal data Facebook is supposed to be collecting and learning about me, they're doing a crappy job putting it together. First there was this:



I think even people who pass me on the street know my opinion of Nickelback.

And now this. Really, Facebook?

Name calling

Holly to her sisters: You're a butt crack! You're a peanut butter and jelly puncher!
