Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie My rating: 5 of 5 stars Okay so maybe I was a little late in reading this; It is one of the books that I’ve picked up a hundred times, flipped through, but wound up getting distracted by something else. What was I thinking? Why had I not allowed myself [...]
A Greek God at the Ladies’ Club by Jenna McKnight My rating: 1 of 5 stars While I give this a shelf of “Greek Mythology”, it is very very far from any sort of true mythology. But given the context of the book, I had to add it (especially since I will have more of [...]
Peter Pan in Scarlet by Geraldine McCaughrean My rating: 2 of 5 stars This was a difficult read; considering this is a children’s book I am not sure if that is a feat by the author or if it says something about me as a reader. Maybe I expected too much. I had heard so [...]
I am still using the Proactiv system but after the fiasco with the “refining mask” I had to skip a few treatments and then realized that my skin was still getting very dry–almost hurtful, in fact. I was using the moisturizer so much that not only am I now running out but I was breaking [...]
No pictures for this update on my skin. Because the mask so severely dried out my skin and just made it all kinds of OW, I skipped the second treatment yesterday and both treatments today. I will do the first treatment tomorrow when I wake up and see how my skin reacts over the course [...]
Kitty’s House of Horrors by Carrie Vaughn My rating: 4 of 5 stars I have to admit, I picked this book up while at work about… six or seven hours ago and couldn’t put the damned thing down. As much as I’ve griped in the past that the Kitty Norville series is pure fluff and [...]
(Yes I realize that “day 6″ was written on the 9th – I write my entries after midnight generally) Day 8. Everything was fine and dandy until I decided to introduce the “refining mask” into today’s 2nd application. Done as directed, between steps 1 and 2. Left on for almost 10 minutes (suggested is 10 [...]
Mona Lisa Awakening by Sunny My rating: 1 of 5 stars Wow. And not in a good way. What a piece of utter crap. When I had picked up the book initially, the fact that it was pretty much stated that the author had drawn ‘inspiration’ from Anne Bishop, Laurell K. Hamilton, etc I was [...]
I have actually been keeping up with the 2x daily regimen for Proactiv. I am very proud of myself for keeping up with it and trying to get into the routine and habit of using it as directed. I generally lose interest, become discouraged or lazy. This time I’ve been sticking with it pretty well. [...]
I got my first shipment of Proactiv in the mail today. I have heard good things and I have heard bad things. Now, I am not one to take those ‘bad things’ to heart without giving it a shot anyway. If it doesn’t work out then so be it. But I am tired of my [...]
