Your Love by The Outfield: I am going old school on you this month. The Barrister and I went and saw one of his favorite local performers earlier this month and he did a little 80s montage which reminded me how much I love this song. My co-workers also love it, so when one of us is in a bad mood, we'll play this song!
Books:
This was a much better reading month for me!
Beneath a Marble Sky by John Shors - This was my local book club selection. It's a work of historical fiction based upon the building of the Taj Mahal - definitely a great read!
Wishin' and Hopin' by Wally Lamb - You can read my review here.
Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro - This was an interesting read that is outside of my typical genre. It was a bit dark, but was pretty engaging so I am glad I checked it out.
Everything I Never Wanted to Be by Dina Kucera - I'll be reviewing this book next week, so stay tuned!
Miles:
I honestly have no idea how many miles I ran in November but I can tell you, it wasn't many! I have been doing more biking lately as my knee has been a little bit wonky. Hopefully I can post a more respectable number in December!
Looks:
I adore this dress, but not the price tag... so I will admire it from afar. For the first time in years, I actually have a holiday party to attend so I was looking for a fun holiday dress that will not break the bank! That Anthro dress was not in the budget but luckily I found something I like even more, at a fraction of the cost! So this dress is on it's way to me! I hope it fits!
Oooh Shabby Apple! Can't wait to see pics of you in it!
ReplyDeleteOh, man!! I forgot about that song. It's so fun though. Thanks for posting it..brings back some memories.
ReplyDeleteAnd, I love that dress that you bought! It's really pretty! Perfect dress for a holiday party.
I, too, love the dress you ordered! Did you get the hat, too? :)
ReplyDeleteI placed "Beneath a Marble Sky" on my library list.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful dress. How fun!
That's a very pretty dress :) And Beneath a Marble Sky sounds great - I love historical fiction!
ReplyDeleteWow, 4 books in a month. I read one and thought that was good! Haha!
ReplyDeleteOooh, I love that dress! I actually think I like the one you ordered more though, the neckline is awesome!!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the little black dress you ordered! SO CUTE! You better post a pic of yourself in it :)
ReplyDeleteI am hoping to read more in December, I only read like 2 books in November :S
OMG, Anthro dress is gorg, but of course so spendy. I hate that. If only they could come down about $75 each... The dress you picked will be super cute though. Love that song. I am writing it down so I can download it tonight. I always forget about some of the oldies but goodies. Your reading always impresses me.
ReplyDeleteThat dress is FABULOUS!!!! Perhaps it will appear under our Christmas tree in a few weeks for moi!
ReplyDeleteI love that dress that you picked for your party. Its going to look fantastic.
ReplyDeleteCute dress!
ReplyDeleteOh dresses. Always so expensive. So fun that you have a holiday party to attend :)
ReplyDeleteLove the dresses from Shabby Apple! It's a very cute dress you ordered. I also love the Anthro dress but yes, its so over priced.
ReplyDeleteThe sound on my computer doesn't work... so I'll sing it myself...
ReplyDeleteJOSIE'S ON A VACATION FAR AWAY, COME AROUND AND TALK IT OVER! SO MANY THINGS THAT I WANNA SAY, YOU KNOW I LIKE MY GIRLS A LITTLE BIT OLDER!
Best song ever.
