Alas, I have the coolest dentist on the planet! Apparently dentists take 5 days for the Victoria Day long weekend. Who knew? I should be working somewhere like that. *grin* But he came in first thing this morning because my tooth broke last night and he fixed me up enough to get me through till they're back next week. He's of the old school variety wherein he gives his home number for emergencies. Now I has the frozen face and drinking tea through a straw is an adventure.
Last week, my second Dad passed on, and it's been an emotional week to say the least. Funny, no matter how old you get, or your parents get, you can never really prepare for the loss of a loved one. My Dad passed away 20 years ago this year and I still miss him a lot. So even though it's not Fathers Day, my hats off to dads who are awesome dads! You always hear about dead-beat dads and dads who aren't so great, but I was lucky enough to have two awesome human beings in my life who were wonderful examples and an inspiration to me.
I haven't made it to see Wolverine or Star Trek yet and I'm dying to go. I know, I can hear the collective gasp, lol. And no, I do not live out in the country. I am right here in urban metropolis and I haven't seen the two movies I'm wanting so badly to see. Shameful isn't it? Bad, bad Judi.
I haven't listed my recent book purchases in a long time, I know. Suffice it to say that all the awesome May releases are putting me in the red. Yikes! I have no control over my book addiction. None what-so-ever. Well, maybe a little, because one must buy food right? I have all my book-ish info going on over at my other blog .
Well, I wish you all a Happy Victoria Day long weekend, otherwise known as the May 24 long weekend. Here's a bit of eye-candy for the ladies.

Dear Blog,
I am writing to explain my shameful negligence these last few weeks. The month of December was, as it is for most, a busy month for me. I had two family birthday’s, Christmas, New Year’s and another family birthday on January 2nd, so, it was a bit hectic to say the least. I’m sure you can understand the lack of posting for this reason. Here’s my cat, Nemo, doing his “nobody can see me under the tree” impression. The glowing eyes didn’t give him away at all…. really! LOL
I also was, in the mean-time, bitten by the TWILIGHT bug, but I’ll start from the beginning. I had, of course, read all 4 books in Stephenie Meyer’s Twilight series as they were released. I really enjoyed them and recommended them to family and friends. When I heard that the movie was coming out, I definitely wanted to see it! I am not usually one to go and see movies in the theater and especially not in the first week or two. I’m not a fan of having the back of my seat kicked for two hours, or of listening to teenagers talk/giggle/text/go in and out, etc while the movie is playing. It’s a fair statement to say that I make it to the theater about once a year to see a movie, and it’s always during the week, a couple of weeks after it’s been released. I’m more of a buy the DVD and watch it at home kinda gal.
So, November 21st came and went, and I read several stories online about girls screaming through the whole movie, how packed the theatre was, and several “loved it/hated it” posts. I continued to read these stories for a couple of weeks and considered it a good call on my part to wait to see it. My older sister also wanted to see it, so we decided to go, but the night before we had planned to go, I was telling my best-friend that we were finally going. She offered to go that night with me and even offered to pay… like I was going to say no? I don’t think so! So December 12th, off we went. I think this picture will say what I thought of it better than mere words.
Yes, that’s 8 theater tickets you’re looking at, all mine, as well as the Official Movie Companion and a Twilight Tribute magazine. I have never, and I mean NEVER, been to see a movie this many times! It’s crazy! And I still want to see it again, lol. My sister and I went the next night. She loved it too. We went again the next week and still wanted to go again. My mom couldn’t figure out why we were both so nuts about this film, so now she wanted to go and watch it to see what all the fuss was about. Now I think it’s pertinent to let you all know that I am 30-something years old, my sister is closer to 40 and my mom is 62-ish, lol. We’re in no way close to being impressionable, easily-swayed, teenagers. My mother has never been a fan of vampires, paranormal romance or urban fantasy. Umm… yeah… my mother has been 5 times to see it!!! My sister 3 times, me - 8 times, my best friend 4 times and her 16 year old daughter 5 times. Crazy huh? LOL My mom asked for the first book, Twilight, the first night she saw it and she read all 4 books in a week. I’ve re-read the series twice since seeing the movie the first time. We’re actually tossing around the idea that there is some kind of subliminal messaging in either the movie or the soundtrack, which I also bought. We all LOVE the soundtrack too! Yup, I’m definitely leaning towards subliminal something alright.
It doesn’t hurt that the lead actor, Robert Pattinson, is hands-down, the best looking man on the planet! (Yes, I know he’s 22, he’s almost 23. Think Demi & Ashton people, lol, and he has said that he likes older women, so there! I can still dream.) Both in or out of character, he is just stunning. See for yourself…
Out Of Character
In Character
Apparently, if you’re a female with a heartbeat, this 
worked! For real! I have no other viable explanation for my complete zombi-fi-cation over this Twilight addiction. I guess I now officially qualify as a Twi-Hard or Fan-Pire, lol. And I am 100% Team Edward, in case that wasn’t clear before. 
What did I think of the movie? Well, I usually find myself disappointed when I see a movie after reading the book. Not this time! Yes, there are quite a few changes. There are scenes from the book that I would have loved to have seen that weren’t in the movie, and scenes in the movie that weren’t in the book, but they made it work. Obviously, there’s no way to put everything that’s in a 500-something page book into a two hour movie. I can’t wait to see New Moon in November and Eclipse when it comes out!
I thought that the casting choices they made really worked well. For me, Kristen Stewert as Bella was a good choice. I’m not sure if it was the screen-writer’s scripting or Kristen’s acting, but I found some of her scenes lacking in the dialogue department. I recall the character being much less conversationally challenged in the book. I also missed the witty sarcasm that the character of Bella has in the book. They showed a very small taste of that with the character in the movie, but I did like Kristen as Bella, all-in-all. Robert Pattinson as Edward Cullen was spectacular. He not only acted the hell out of that part, he WAS Edward! The emotions that this guy can portray with just a look… WOW! Another favorite was Ashley Green as Alice Cullen. She nailed the part to a T. Love her! Jackson Rathbone as Jasper Cullen/Hale was great. He totally had a couple of Edward Scissorhands moments, but I enjoyed his portrayal. I also liked the rest of the cast and I think it was really a good idea to cast a lot of people who weren’t really well known for other parts/characters. This made it easier to accept them in these character roles.
I am not the “target audience” for either the books or movie, but from what I’m seeing online, apparently there are a lot of other women who don’t fall into that demographic and they are all huge fans of the books and movie. Go and check out the Twilight MySpace page and read the comments to see some truly shocking comments. Some girls have been 30, 40, 100, 200 & 300 times to see the movie!! See, I’m not that bad. LOL Yes, I’ve been bitten by the Twilight bug, and my brain has been preoccupied. The several hundred fansites of all the books, movie and characters attest to the fact that there are an awful lot of fans out there. You can find out more about the awesome books at Stephenie Meyer’s Website.
So, in closing, Dear Blog, I have been unfair to you by spending all my time with my new addiction. My apologies to you and my readers. It’s time to give my head a shake and get back in the game. I will endeavor to get back to posting my reviews, interviews and urban fantasy relevant news starting right now. But… if Robert Pattinson were to contact me for a date or for any reason really… I may disappear for awhile again. I’m sure you’ll understand.

Yay, I found the USB plug for my camera! Here be the pumpkins and halloween decorations outside. =)
I just couldn't get a good shot at night. It took me about 5/6 hours to carve these suckers, but I was quite pleased with the results. I got lots of compliments and ooohh-ing and awww-ing from young and old trick-or-treaters, so it was worth the hand cramps! =) What do you all think?

I have a huge list of books I've bought, so I'll do a separate post or this one will be 2 hours long, lol.
My hats off to all the NaNoWriMo competitors this year! I'm not up for the craziness myself this year, but I'll root for you all from the sidelines.

You Should Be a Film Writer |
 You don't just create compelling stories, you see them as clearly as a movie in your mind. You have a knack for details and dialogue. You can really make a character come to life. Chances are, you enjoy creating all types of stories. The joy is in the storytelling. And nothing would please you more than millions of people seeing your story on the big screen! |

Your result for Reincarnation Placement Exam...
Reclusive Artist
49% Intrigue, 78% Civilization, 36% Humanity, 41% Urbanization.
We think we've found a place for you.
Your answers indicate that you're very fond of the fruits of civilization... for example, education and technology. But, in some twist of irony, you're not too fond of the pressures of civilization... you know, human beings and crowds and working together. We found you a place where you could enjoy an erudite existence, live a life that's intriguing and not entirely secure -- but far from the madding crowd.
Removed from civilization and humanity, yet educated and sophisticated, you'll make the perfect reclusive artist... An eccentric that produces irresistibly attractive masterpieces. Your art will make people swoon, and yet you will despise your audience. Your audience will probably dislike you as well, though they will go on admiring your work. So it all balances out, and your patrons will leave you alone to shape beauty in the wild, dangerous parts of the world where people won't pester you so much. Probably, you will write under a pseudonym, and mutter a lot when a rare admirer comes calling. If you feel really adventurous, you can pursue the role of a political dissident.
As you age, you will grow into the role of an incorrigible curmudgeon.
You artists, you're all the same.

Laptop Update & Books I've Acquired
Well, I just found out today that they've replaced the hard-drive on my laptop. I'm hoping that this will solve the problems, but what a time-suck it's going to be to try and get all my "stuff" back on there. Boo! Never mind the going through thousands of emails to re-file the important ones, sigh... I'm hoping it will arrive tomorrow, but it probably won't get here till Monday. Stupid computers! Why do they have to be so addicting? LOL
Alrighty, I've gotten my recently acquired books somewhat organized, so here's the latest haul.
Blood Fever by Karen Marie Moning, Immortals: The Redeeming by Jennifer Ashley, Double Enchantment by Katherine Kennedy, The Vampire's Visit by David A. Poulson, Prophecy by Sylvia Browne, Achangel by Sharon Shinn, Beyond The Threshold Of Death by Erika Knudson, Guilty By Reason Of Stupidity by Joel J. Seidemann, Wicked Fantasy by Nina Bangs, Wicked Pleasure by Nina Bangs, Weregirls: Birth Of The Pack by Petru Popescu, Beyond The Dark - Anthology w/ Angela Knight, Emma Holly, Lora Leigh & Diane Whiteside, The Good Ghouls' Guide To Getting Even by Julie Kenner, Walk On The Wild Side by Christine Warren, Hidden by Eve Kenin, Playing With Fire by Katie MacAlister, Thirsty by M.T. Anderson, Dead End Dating by Kimberly Raye, Cornered Tigress by Jade Lee, The Untamed One by Ronda Thompson and Demon Moon by Meljean Brook.
The leaning piles of TBR books just keep growing and swaying! I really don't know where to put them anymore. And I just make it way more difficult for myself to choose what to read with so many to choose from. The thing is, I remember about a year or two ago, I had nothing new to read. I know! Tragic right? So every time I had some spare money, I'd buy some new, some used and some from the Goodwill. Fast forward, and here we are with oh... I don't know, 600-700 books I haven't read yet. (Can you see the maniacal gleam in my eyes while I rub my hands together?)
It's called book addiction, yes indeed. For some women it's clothes, shoes, purses, perfumes, jewelry or men. Books are my crack and I apparently have NO CONTROL what-so-ever! Bwaa ha ha
Well, I am off to do some reading before I go to sleep. Happy reading all. =)

Yes, I made it through the weekend in which I was a bridesmaid at my best friend's wedding. It was a beautiful ceremony, an amazing dinner, and my feet are still plotting revenge 3 days later! I haven't had heels on for years and we're pretty sure I have a pinched nerve somewhere. Man, I'm getting old! I didn't even drink and I had to sleep for the majority of the last two days just to recover. I guess my Fibro could have something to do with it.
I'm just happy for my B.F. and her new hubby that everything went beautifully and that they are happy and in love. :-)
My laptop is off on another trip to Ontario, to the manufacturer's techs, for the third time in the last two months! Oh yes, to say that I am beyond pissed is an understatement of epic proportions. I'm not going to get into it because I'll get myself all worked up all over again! Suffice it to say that I'm running behind on my reading, reviews, and writing for school because of these bloody laptop problems and having to try and find info on another computer that was already on mine. GRRRRR. I burned all my documents to disc from my laptop and of course the computer that I'm using now doesn't want to find them on the disc. *shakes fist in the air*
So, it's September 2nd and Fall has definitely started to arrive here in Alberta, Canada. It's definitely started to cool down quite a bit and all things green are starting to turn yellow. I've been watching CNN to keep appraised of hurricane's Gustav and Hanna. My thoughts are with all the people who live in the path of these tropical storms and hurricanes. I can't even imagine having to be prepared to evacuate everytime a severe weather warning goes up in those places that have the danger of being devastated by weather. My heart and deepest respect goes out to those who live through those conditions and yet find the courage and strength to survive when faced with those circumstances.We do have tornado warnings here rarely, and sometimes have a week or two of "deep freezes" in the winter, but it just doesn't seem as severe as the destruction that can be wrought by a hurricane. WOW.
I'm hoping to get back into the swing of things this week and start posting more regular blogs and reviews. My birthday is coming up on the 11th, so that means the usual introspection or reflection that goes with it and I've also decided that I need to diet down and exercise to lose some weight, pronto. I'm not happy at all with how I'm looking and feeling lately, so it's time for some major cardio and less sweets. Wish me luck!
I have to get my list of books bought in order and I'll get them posted here this week. I'm crossing my fingers for some gift cards to Chapters, lol, and maybe I'll get a good pile of books this month. ;-)

Yep, that's my haul. =)
I've recently also joined up on GoodReads, FaceBook and BookBlogs. So I've found even more ways to procrastinate, lol. The links to me at all these places are on ye olde Review Blog so please feel free to friend me or add me if you're on MySpace, FaceBook, GoodReads, LibraryThing or BookBlogs. Mwuu ha ha ha, I is everywhere now! (Insert evil grin here)

Ok, I wasn't really eaten by zombies, but it's a catchy headline no? LOL Let me tell you, this miserable cold in the hottest months of the summer makes me wish I were eaten by zombies though. =D Oh yeah, and just in case anyone was wondering, the second carton of Mocha Almond Fudge ice cream is just as divine as the first one was.
Bad blogger that I am, I have a ton of catching up to do here. No cake for me, only ice cream.
I have my review of Kelley Armstrong's new young adult urban fantasy novel, The Summoning up. Awesome new series from one of my long time favorite author's.
For those who have been following and supporting me through my computer crises', the laptop is FINALLY back and working fine. WOOO HOOO!!! *Grins* Amen to that! I'm wondering if I should be phoning the company now to ask them what are they going to do to compensate me for my time, money, stress, and trouble. What do you think I should do?
I have my wishlist of July & August releases posted in case anyone is looking for some awesome urban fantasy or paranormal romance books to read.
Books I have received since my last post include: Grimspace by Ann Aguirre, Hell's Belles & The Road To Hell by Jackie Kessler, Wages Of Sin by Jenna Maclaine, Romancing The Dead by Tate Hallaway, and Lyon by Elizabeth Amber.
Books I've bought since my last post include: You Suck by Christopher Moore, Tantalize by Cynthia Letich Smith, Masquerade by Melissa De la Cruz, NightWalker by Jocelynn Drake, Captive Moon by CT Adams & Cathy Clamp, Primal Desires by Susan Sizemore, The Wild Road by Marjorie M Liu, Vamps by Nancy A Collins, Fugitives Of Chaos by John C Wright, Bitten To Death by Jennifer Rardin, Acheron by Sherrilyn Kenyon, and Breaking Dawn by Stephanie Meyer.
So my current dilemma involves the fact that I have a whole bunch of books that have been sent to me to be reviewed, for which I am extremely grateful and looking forward to reading, but I also have some new books that I've bought that I am DYING to read RIGHT NOW!! Help!!?? What to do, what to do? I'm leaning towards one review book, one of mine, one review book and so on. That's fair no?
Well, I am off to run some errands, throw myself in my little pool to cool off, eat some ice cream and read, read, read! I wish you all an awesome weekend!

For anyone interested in keeping up with my "computer conundrums", it's still in Ontario with the techs. I called on Friday to see what's what, and they told me that the motherboard has been replaced. I KNEW IT!!!! Did I not say before I sent it off the first time that the MB was fried? Ha! and double HA! You should've seen me on Friday crowing about how I KNEW that was what was wrong with it. I'll be phoning again today to see what's going on, but that's the latest. I want my laptop back already. =(
3 and a half weeks now and I'm still jonesing for it. My trusty little IBM Thinkpad has gotten me through it though. ( Pets said IBM - "good little laptop") Nevermind the 26 discs I used to back absolutely everything up off this laptop, lol. I moved everything over from my other laptop's hard drive before sending it off to Ontario. So that's the latest in my ongoing computer drama-rama.

2:00pm, my package arrives. I take out my laptop, plug it in, and... nothing! Black screen and nothing's going on under the hood!!! It's not booting up, the hard drive's not spinning, and the power light is flashing. I was in total disbelief. The accompanying paper says that my windows had a couple of corrupt drivers and everything's working fine now. Um... I don't fookin think so! I called the maunfacturer and spent about an hour losing my mind on the phone with them. They're sending a courier, that they are paying for, to pick it up to be taken back to the service center. I'm thinking I'm about to have an anuerysm or something because my blood pressure's through the roof, and they're sending it back to the same place that didn't fix it the first time. Am I wrong in feeling like WTF?
What are they going to do to compensate me for time lost? Inconvenience? Stress? Seriously, it's a 10 month old laptop that I only really started using as my main computer in Feb. That's only 5 months of regular use. I say again, WTF! And I had to pay to ship it to them the first time!? *shakes head*
I pulled the hard drive again and got everything I'd forgotten to get, like my music and contacts, and I also finally managed to get all my emails as well. The hard drive and explorer work fine when hooked up to my other little laptop, just as it did before I sent it the first time. I am choked beyond description.
So because of all the stress all day from both the sewing, and with the laptop fiasco, I smoked more than usual. My throat was sore, which I attributed to the chain smoking. No big, gargle some hot salt water and it'll be better by tomorrow. I'm eating pizza for dinner when CRACK, my jaw popped out of place in a painful way - so bad that I couldn't even finish chewing the food in my mouth!
So I'm sitting here in pain with a dead laptop, a dying sewing machine, a sore throat, a dislocated, swollen jaw (I have TMD), and my nose starts running. Great. I'm supposed to go to my best friend's bridal shower/bachellorette for pretty much most of Saturday. Could my luck get any worse?
I woke up today feeling like crap. I'm having chills, sweating, so congested I can't breathe, coughing, achey, cranky and mad at the world. I quote Gene Simmons, " I hate everybody!" Had to phone my best friend and tell her I won't be hanging around for the bridal shower or bachelorette, that I'm just going to drop off her gift.
I'm going to crawl back under my rock now, and hope I feel better soon. Sorry for the exceptionally long whine today, but I had to get it off my chest, you know?
