I know everyone get sick of me talking about work.  You know what I think i'm sick of talking about work.  So since I have these two weeks on 1st shift before I may or may not go back to 3rd I figured I would give an update of books read (hangs head in shame) from March. 

Books Leaving Paradise by Simone Elkeles

Leaving Paradise )

Manga- We Were There, Fairy Tail, and Chibi Vampire

We Were There, Fairy Tail, Chibi Vampire )

Yaoi - Millenium Darling 2006 and Where has Love Gone

Millenium Darling 2006, Where has Love Gone )

Well that is all for now.  Don't want to bore anyone.  But yeah that was one pile moved from my desk so now I can see my computer again.  (Yes I hadn't put the books away from my last post).   Maybe in the next few days I will post again with some books I read in April (smiling).

Sorry haven't updated in a while.  Life has been really crazy.  (well work and trying to sleep has been crazy).

I think I gave an update before that 3 people where starting.  So I was training 2 for 3rd shift and one was being trained for 2nd shift.  The 2nd shift person did not work out so they took one that I was training and put them on 2nd.   Then the process began again to find a new person.  So I continued to try and train the new person for 3rd shift.  It is hard training her.  When I show her something, she responds back with " I understand", or " I get it".  SO I am not sure if she really knows it or not.  (plus it is hard  to train on 3rd shift, the first week or two everyone is falling asleep while being trained just getting used to the hours).   Now they found another person for 3rd shift and I started the process all over again.  So no computer at work for me, then when I am home it is trying to get my kids back and forth to work and school.  Then fit sleep in.  So I don't have a lot of extra time to myself.

That being said this past weekend I had a wedding, and my Daughter graduates from High School on Sunday.  (very proud of her)!!  So next weekend is her graduation party.  So I will have to clean, and prepare for the party.  

So unless I get a free moment in the next week or so I won't be posting again.  When I do I have lots of books to post, since I still have to post about the book I read in March.

I feel so bad.  My cousin that I had written about last year pasted away yesterday from Cancer.  He had been sick for over a year and half.  I knew he wouldn't have much longer to live, but it still came to a shock to me today when I heard.  

I know I haven't seen him in a awhile but it is still hard he was such a big part of my childhood and growing up.  It was only when both got jobs, married had kids that we didn't see each other.

I will always remember him on my birthday since his was the same day, we where a year apart in age.

Bye Mark, Love you and I will miss you.

So much for trying to post more often :D

At work I have been putting in alot of hours, and starting to get burned out. 

Work  )

I've been reading alot of Manhwa lately and got really behind on Dancing with the Stars and American Idol.  I have no clue who is even still left on the shows.  Maybe I'll get caught up after both of them have a winner (LOL).

So here is a few more books that I read back in April. (What would I do without goodreads since I type up the books comments there I only have to copy and paste).  Which this makes it even harder to figure out why I don't post more often.

Books Evernight by Claudia Gray
 

Evernight )

Manga Get Backers, Love Attack and Pretty Poison

Get Backers, Love Attack and Pretty Poison )

Yaoi Pure Heart

Pure Heart )

 I am going to do a few word of the day so if you read my post you will understand what Manga, Manhwa, Yaoi and Anime

Manga
Pronunciation:
mahng-guh
Function: noun
: a Japanese comic book or graphic novel

Manhwa  (note I always list this under manga anyway)
Function: noun
: (comics) Korean comics

Yaoi
Yaoi (YAH-OH-EE):
'Yaoi' is a Japanese term meaning 'boy sex,' or sex between two males. It is largely seen in various Anime, Manga, and fanwork, and has become a rather flexible term. It is usually mistaken for Shounen-Ai, or 'boy love'.

Anime
Japanese for "animation" or "cartoons." In American fandom however, it's used to refer to any form of animation produced in Japan. Anime comes in the form of animated TV shows or movies, video games, and comic books (see Manga).

That is all for today.  Maybe in the next few days I will get time to post again.

Just a quick note. Most everyone knows I that I buy a lot of books. Most of them I get from recommendations from the girls that run Michelle Minions. Michelle Minions is a Live Journal Community where she talks about Young Adult books.

They have now started a forum for everyone to talk about the books and express their opinions. They discuss the books that are posted on Michelle Minions plus many others. Including Anime/Manga/Movies/ Actors/ Games.

So if you get a chance check it out and signup and join the forum.




Just click on the link below to check it out and join :D

At least I made it one more day this week to try and post.  In this batch I don't have any Young Adult just manga.  I have been on a Manga kick these last few days.  I think I was making up for the days I didn't read any since I was reading City of Glass. Plus I have almost all of the Manga in my room again except 1 bin.  We cleaned up my Daughters room and moved  the bags up to my room.  So I have been reading some that I haven't seen in months.  It's funny how once in awhile I will come across something like an old movie, record (yes vinyl), Cd's or something and when I see it, I have to watch, listen to or read it.

So here is my list of the manga I read. I'm still trying to keep the list down but I have so many now to write.  I keep thinking I will post more often just to get them off my desk and put away. 

Manga Otomen, Goong, and Wild Ones
Otomen, Goong, Wild Ones )

Yaoi Manga Your Honest Deceit

Your Honest Deceit )

Movie Air Heads

Air Heads )

Word of the day :)  I am reading a book and this word was in it.  Looked it up to see what it meant

ubiquitous

Pronunciation: yoo-bik-wi-tuhs
Adjective
existing or being everywhere at the same time : constantly encountered
ubiq·ui·tous·ly adverb
ubiq·ui·tous·ness noun

Okay now I am going to sound like a big baby here but I really dislike doing taxes!!! 

I know we all of to do it and yes I could go to an agency and spend alot of money to get it done and save myself from becoming insane and upset with doing them.

Taxes grr! )

I guess I am done ranting for now.  You can skip over this.  Just had to get it of my chest so I can try and lay down before work tonight.

Well that is all for now. I am getting more used to 3rd shift. I just seem to get really tired between 4:00am and 5:00am. So any reading or writing I try to do it before I get tired. Hopefully I will get better with updating next month these where just the books from February I still have all of March to type up.
