Shit You Might Like to Like Too

I started writing out this whole big story involving going to the bank on Saturdays with my dad, and rolls of pennies from the penny jars my grandparents would give Golden Boy and me. This story was linked to my creativity, but I erased it upon realizing I couldn't find the connection anymore between that and the title of this blog post. I got lost. I changed the title. I watched a Friends rerun, because when is it not funny?

Anyway, hi. I'd like to let you know about some stuff I like.

Maven of Savin' is pretty rad on the store and coupon deals. Very corny name, but all is forgiven when you look at the stuff she comes up with. Also, she updates her site multiple times a day.

On a more local level, I like Jeremy's, even though I can't afford to shop there. But you can! Plus it's still fun to go in and touch all the stuff. If I ever do have money again, I will want to hire a professional clothing shopper to take me shopping there.

All the books by Lisa Lutz are amazing, and I tore through them to keep finding out more about the Spellmans, ignoring the inner voice telling me to slow down so I couldn't cry when they'd all been read. It's fun to read books that have the story take place somewhere you live. I mean, she writes about the Philosopher's Club, and okay, while I can't say I've drank there, I have been at the train stop you'd get off at if you were going to drink there, and that's practically the same thing. Anyway, my point is, Lisa, please hurry up and write more soon. Thank you.

I don't think my parents would tell you they were awesome. They're not braggy in that way. But some people think their parents were awesome, and they sent pictures in to a website to prove it. This website makes me cry. I am dying for more information. It fascinates me to see people with decades of giving other people advice ahead of them. (It horrifies me to have terrible sentence structure.)

Lastly, these bowls are awesome.

So yeah.

LOVE the Spellman books! I'm super excited about the upcoming movie! (Lisa Lutz is writing the screenplay.) There's a nasty rumor going around that she is done writing the series tho ...

So happy to see that you are back to blogging, Green. :)

I loved the Spellman files. And I have gone drinking at the Philosophers Club, the name is by far the most awesome thing about it. Trust me, you aren't missing out on much.
And why aren't you writing a book. Your blog makes me smile (and cringe at times) more than most great books.
