It's actually nice, not much "spammy," and the updates are really interesting. I almost got to convince a few friends to attend a book signing with me once but that didn't pan ... http://blog-of-z.com/index.php/2008/11/21/twilight-time/ People have disagreements all the time. Even the kind-hearted ones meet people who get to their nerves and never quite crawl out of their skin. I've been listening to stories of less-than-serious bouts and general bitchiness. They go on and on. They never stop. Some cracks will mend almost as soon as other bonds ... http://blog-of-z.com/index.php/2008/11/20/lets-talk-about-darkness/ I don't need Movado watches to tell me I should stop typing now and go to bed. It's another night of trying to juggle updating three blogs, watching DVD, and reading a book. I really need to find some direction here. A little bit of discipline perhaps or a dash of organizational skill. Never been my best ... http://blog-of-z.com/index.php/2008/11/20/whats-the-time/ I was investigating a little zit on the side of my face last night, when... Wait you didn't have to know that, sorry.

Normally, I'm very nervous about crossing busy streets that's why I really appreciate those pedestrian overpass. Sadly, there can't be more of ... http://blog-of-z.com/index.php/2008/11/17/street-tale/ It just occurred to me, we don't really use mailboxes here, no?! I mean that thing that sits in front of your house where the mailman (do we still have those? because I don't see many of them anymore) will drop your letters. Maybe in progressive, sprawling residential areas? I dunno, I think mail boxes provide a nice touch to the ... http://blog-of-z.com/index.php/2008/11/15/mailboxes/ ... and older. I never thought I'll ever be 30. I was brought up in such a way that I believed I'll never have to worry about getting old. Maybe I got that one wrong - doctrines get lost in translation every so often. So today, when I finally did reach that milestone, as ... http://blog-of-z.com/index.php/2008/11/13/and-so-im-here/ I officially have four books that I really, really want to finish before November ends - Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell (Susanna Clarke), Possession (A.S. Byatt), The Hours (Michael Cunningham), and Kafka on the Shore (Haruki Murakami). That's just my most wanted list, but I still have a few more ... http://blog-of-z.com/index.php/2008/11/13/getting-back-to-reading/ Ever since I learned about Paypal, I thought right away how cool it must be to use a service like that - just have an e-mail account to use for online purchases and viola! Checkout products without having to expose or reveal your credit crd numbers. It sounds a lot safer than having ... http://blog-of-z.com/index.php/2008/11/13/i-heart-paypal/ When not having Disney vacations with their children, the tennis power couple of Andre Agassi and Steffi Graf are busy designing for their Kreiss furniture line.
