Of all the silly things I've become obsessed with lately, the flag counter on this blog has got to be the best! For example, today my newest visitor was from United Arab Emirates. That's like a fairy tale land from where I'm sitting in the hills of Virginia. I am also intrigued by the counts, USA has the most, with the UK holding a strong second place, always a little ahead of Canada. I can't help but wonder what all these people are thinking as they click on my blog...which I pride myself on having no point...So, seriously people of earth, if you leave a comment or question, I would love to write you back!! mmkay?? Now, because of the ridiculous amount of snow, (and there will be more tomorrow) I have been one of a hand full of people able to get to work. The 'getting there' part is rather shitty(say that with an accent in your mind) also, people here have no clue how to drive in this mess. I lost count of how many jack-hole moves I saw today...Ok, enough complaining...I just finished reading "The Swan Thieves" by Elizabeth Kostova. I had read "The Historian" a couple of years ago and fell in love with her descriptive style. I recommend The Swan Thieves to any serious reader out there, its no fluffy, easy read. I don't want to give away too much, but I love the way she writes about the painters in the book, their selfishness and their ability to put art above everything else. Now, I have not bought a new book so I am returning to my comfort zone and re-reading 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows' gearing myself up for November when part one of the movie comes out! I have to get up super early for work, so I need to turn my brain off now and try not to worry about more snow, since it is all of of my control...
