Which one will you be? ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ Yes, apocalypse. We've had that over and over. But we always survived. We're still here. And we'll still be here, even if the power and the radios don't come back on and we never see any white people again. Thoughts : Evan Whitesky returns home after a whole day of hunting to realize that his mobile phone had lost network sometime during the day. He doesn't think a lot about it then but over the next few days, his community loses electricity and their landline connection as well. To make matters worse, they are unable to contact anyone from the city to inquire when services can be restored. With the never-ending blizzard, it was not feasible for someone to simply drive to the nearest city and find out what's going on. Soon, they have to start conserving wh
Well, this is the first of two moves, I guess. My apartment lease has run out, so I'm moving to a friend's place for 20 days, before I move out of Blacksburg. I came here with just three huge bags, but in my two years here, managed to double my stuffs. So it's a hard task even thinking of packing looking at everything around me. I'm lucky I'm not moving across the country but just a couple of hours away. Else, I'll be giving away most of these things and fedexing the rest. :shudder: So today's going to be a really busy day. Packing, plus a lunch party!
Although I expected to have a light last week, it didn't turn out that way. I ended up with a few more thesis-related tasks, but I have finally (for sure this time) wrapped it up. 11 more days to go! Because of all the work, I didn't get much time to read, only finishing The Color Purple by Alice Walker (which I loved). Within the next four days, I have my eye on one more book, One Vacant Chair by Joe Coomer. I still haven't been able to get back to a proper reading or blogging schedule, and I'm not sure when I can. But hopefully today in between breaks, I can wring it. If not, there are whole days from tomorrow onwards.
And, since I promised you pictures from my lunch with three bloggers, Kathy, Jaime and Jennifer, here they are!

What's happening in the blogosphere? I haven't been up-to-date with most of you, and will hopefully get to it only tomorrow.

PS Great pictures! You look so cute!
I should have asked the waiter to take another picture - I look like I'm half asleep.
I loved The Color Purple, too! I had first seen the movie and once I read the book, I was even more impressed by what a great job they did with the movie. Both are so compelling.
i sure hope you did not have any trouble with the cat.
