Clearly, I have no life.

Back in January I decided to keep a list of every book I read during 2008. I don't have goal to meet, I just like the idea of having a record of what I've read. (I always did like listing books for the library summer reading program as a kid. This is pretty much the same, except nobody gives me stickers.) As of the end of June, I've finished 51 books, proving that I have way too much time on my hands.

I feel very guilty.

[alexiscartwheel.livejournal.com]

Aww... you shouldn't! I sit around at work and read, and then I come home and read. When I say I have no life, I mean it!

I will buy you some stickers. Cause even though you have no life, I still heart you.

And look, I have internet! For some reason my LAN card or whatever wasn't working so maybe that's why I couldn't connect at home...

Who knows.

[alexiscartwheel.livejournal.com]

Yay!!! I heart you too! And I heart stickers!

Nice icon, btw. Doctor/Donna/Rose/Martha/Romana OT5?

Haha thanks, I thought that up the other day but couldn't upload it because of the whole internet thing.

Mmm... Doctor/Donna/Rose/Martha/Romana... only in my wildest fantasies!
