Yall, I have taken some awesome vacations in my life but this Disney Cruise was the BEST THING EVER!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-b9BDf3sMGOk/UKkItynWiZI/AAAAAAAACfw/AdNLn_LOC5s/s1600/1317.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" rea="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-b9BDf3sMGOk/UKkItynWiZI/AAAAAAAACfw/AdNLn_LOC5s/s1600/1317.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Let me give you a bit of the story about how this came to be! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One of my BFF's and Partners in Crime <a href="http://www.twitter.com/ShaloNgiven" target="_blank">Shalon</a> messaged me on October 18 saying she had just gotten an email with an amazing deal on a <a href="http://disneycruise.disney.go.com/" target="_blank">Disney Cruise</a>. She knew that I had never cruised before and it was on my bucket list. I asked how amazing and when she told me, I knew that I had to make this work. The kicker was that it was sailing in 16 days!!! YEAH!!!!! So with some quick phone calls to James's Boss and a convo with my wonderful Boss, we were booked, along with the OTHER partner in Crime <a href="http://www.ontehgoinmco.com/Shelley" target="_blank">Shelley</a> on The <a href="http://disneycruise.disney.go.com/ships-activities/ships/fantasy/" target="_blank">Disney Fantasy</a> for a <a href="http://disneycruise.disney.go.com/cruises-destinations/caribbean/itineraries/7-night-eastern-caribbean-cruise/" target="_blank">7 Night Eastern Caribbean Cruise</a>!! I could NOT BELIEVE THIS! I will say that booking 16 days out was well worth it because we only had a short time to wait. I can not IMAGINE people who book years out ... I would die of anticipation. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I spent those 16 days researching the ports and decorations for our doors, food options, excursions and everything DCL I could get my hands on! I broke my own rules and stalked the DisBoards ( who is I still cant stand. Bunch of crazies who refuse to let anyone have their own opinions) But I used it as reference of what to pack and what to expect!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This was also the FIRST Vacation James and I have EVER taken together. We have never been out of the state together except when we moved to Florida from New Hampshire. This was a huge deal to us!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So On November 2 we Shipped out of Port Canaveral on our First EVER Disney Cruise!!! Here are some of my most favorite pictures of the cruise!!</div>

So one of my bffs <a href="http://www,twitter.com/ShalonGiven" target="_blank">Shalon </a>messages me on Thursday saying she got the rates for Family and Friends Cast Member Disney Cruises.. and I was like omg because last year she took her parents for SUPER CHEAP!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I told her to go look and get back to me!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Needless to say, an hour later, Shalon, James, Shelley and I were booked for a </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://disneycruise.disney.go.com/cruises-destinations/caribbean/itineraries/7-night-eastern-caribbean-cruise/" target="_blank">7 night Disney Cruise on the Fantasy </a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
which is the NEWEST of the Disney Boats!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We booked 16 days out and got SUCH an amazing deal. I am still blown away at this whole thing! I never thought we would be able to afford a cruise but thanks to a great cast member friend and a few amazing bffs, we are totally pulling this off. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We will be celebrating My and James's 5yr/8yr Anniversary as well as My, Shalon and Shelley's 2 year Friendaversary while on the boat! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We are doing the Eastern Caribbean Cruise. Which means we get to go to St. John/St. Thomas and Puerto Rico! As well as Disney's own private Island Castaway Cay!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All I have done for the past 4 days is read cruise trip reports and *gasp* the Dis Boards looking for Door decoration ideas and such.... I am SOSOSOSOSOSO excited!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The girls and I spend the days Whats Apping back and forth about what we want to do and how to dress and decorate.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
James keeps asking for the countdown ;)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it is 12 days in case you were wondering ;)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So far the only excursion James and I have booked is the Bacardi factory tour :) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
HELL YEAH!</div>

I am turning my blog over to her story today. PLEASE read this and examine your own animal's toys. PLEASE Click the Facebook link asking PetsMart to take this toy off its shelves! I don't want another family to have to go through this horror!<br />
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br />
<br />
<div style="color: #4b5d67; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">As many of you know, this past weekend, I lost my puppy, Perry, on his first birthday. Perry passed away after his second abdominal surgery after he ingested pieces of rope from a rope toy marketed for dogs at Petsmart. Needless to say, I am heartbroken. Something I brought into the house ultimately caused him to lose his life. Perry was such a huge part of our family. There is an enormous hole in my life today.</span></div>
<div style="color: #4b5d67; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I don’t want to go into the medical details of what happened to Perry. It isn’t pretty. But the poor little guy had a horrible past three weeks. The only thing that made any of this any easier (besides a wonderful family) is an amazing vet, who is just as saddened today as we are. My goal is to get these unsafe products off of the shelves and out of our homes. If I can save one dog and spare one family this pain, then I did my job.</span></div>
<div style="color: #4b5d67; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I want to write to tell you how wonderful Perry was. But I’m not ready yet. I am writing to tell you that I now have a new mission- to save dogs and puppies from this painful death. So here it is…I am going to research and find other stories like this. I am going to talk to the Petsmart store manager about getting these products off of the shelf. I am going to consumer groups and anywhere else that I can to make sure that NO ONE ever has to go through the pain, the guilt and the loss that I am sitting here with today.</span></div>
<div style="color: #4b5d67; margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I will be creating a Facebook page to keep everyone updated on this endeavor, and I will continue to blog about it as well. Please follow this page and this blog. And make sure your friends and families know about this horrible danger for their pets. And thank you in advance for your support and for all of the prayers, kind thoughts and messages about Perry. He truly was a remarkable dog who was taken way before his time.<del style="line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><a href="http://leasmousecapades.files.wordpress.com/2012/10/birthday-christmas-2011-055.jpg" style="color: #7f1d1d; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none;"><img alt="Image" class=" wp-image aligncenter" height="404" src="http://leasmousecapades.files.wordpress.com/2012/10/birthday-christmas-2011-055.jpg?w=236&h=404" style="border-color: rgb(127, 29, 29); display: block; height: 403px; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px auto; padding: 0px; width: 255px;" width="236" /></a></del></span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Wow, a lot has happened since my last blog post two days ago. I decided to create Perry’s Mission to get the word out to everyone that rope toys are not safe for our dogs and puppies. It was a rope toy that killed my beloved puggle puppy, Perry, on his first birthday. Last post, I didn’t want to talk about what happened, but readers deserve to know a little more about how deadly these toys can be.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I bought an innocent looking toy at PetSmart one day about four weeks ago thinking that Perry would love it! It was Halloween themed, and he and our other dog could play tug of war. How I wish I could go back and change that day. Perry was able to destroy the toy in a matter of an hour. He didn’t just pull strings out of it, he untied the knots, and he tore up the tennis ball on the middle of the rope. I found several long strings in bunches on our back porch and in the back yard. I’m still finding it. That’s how much there was.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The toy that killed Perry</span></div>
</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">One day about three weeks ago, I noticed that Perry wasn’t feeling so well. He stopped eating, and he just wanted to lay around. One Saturday, I took him to Banfield Pet Hospital, which wasn’t his normal vet, but they were open on the weekends. His temperature was normal, and the gave me some recommendations for some bland food and Pepcid. I offered him the different food and still nothing. If anything, he even looked worse. That Monday morning, we took Perry to our regular vet. They ran some tests, and they found that his white blood cell count was through the roof, but we still didn’t know why. He had us keep Perry home that night and told us to call the next morning if things looked worse. By Tuesday morning, he still wasn’t eating, and I knew something was really wrong. We called the next morning, and they ordered us to go get him an ultrasound. The ultrasound showed a blockage which meant surgery.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">He went into surgery that afternoon. We were told it would be a 30 minute to an hour long surgery. But then he called us on speakerphone during the surgery. The vet told my husband to prepare us for the worst because it didn’t look good. It was horrible waiting. The surgery took almost three hours. Then we got the phone call that said he made it through the surgery and he was awake. Things were good.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">We were able to take Perry home the next morning with strict care instructions. He was doing well. He was starting to eat. He was starting to howl and bark again. We started to see signs of the old Perry again. But last Thursday, I noticed he wasn’t eating again. We took him in that day to get his staples removed, and they did a CBC, and the blood tests all came back normal, with the exception of low red blood cell counts. We thought maybe he just overdid it, and he needed to rest. Friday, he was even more lethargic. I took him back in, and they did another CBC count. His results looked even better.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">By Saturday, he still hadn’t eaten. He was moving very gingerly. I knew something was really wrong. I rushed him to the emergency vet clinic. They looked at his gray gums and his overall demeanor, and they immediately took him back to get his vitals and to place him on oxygen. I never saw him again. I met with the vet who told me his belly was full of fluid and bacteria. They were transferring him over for emergency exploratory surgery.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">We met with the surgeon who gave him a 50/50 shot of making it through the surgery. He had thrown up a big ball of black string before the surgery, even though he had already had a bunch of string removed in the first surgery. That’s how much was in that little body. We left to go home and wait it out. The surgeon called us at 11:40 pm Saturday night, and she said that he had made it through the surgery, but the recovery would be long. Then at 12:30 the next morning, the phone rang again. We knew it was bad. Perry had a cardiac arrest. They were trying to revive him, but they warned us that even if they could get the heart started, he would more than likely arrest again. They needed our permission to stop trying, which we gave him. Perry died on his 1st birthday.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">The past few days have been surreal. Many people may think “he’s just a dog”, but he was so much more than that. I have gone through bouts of sadness, anger, guilt, depression. I am smiling more than I am crying now, but the pain is great. Perry died because of something that I gave him- something that should have been preventable.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I don’t want ANYONE else to ever have to go through what we have been going through. So I created Perry’s Mission to get the word out about the dangers of these toys. I have found others who have gone through the same thing because of a rope toy. I have started a Facebook page to post about my findings and the results of my dealings with PetSmart over the sale of this toy (www.facebook.com/PerrysMission). I am being interviewed today by WOAI Channel 4 so others can be spared. I have worked with PetSmart’s Corporate office on getting reimbursed for the thousands of dollars of vet bills AND more importantly, to get this particular toy off of the shelf. I’m only 3 days into Perry’s Mission, and the support has been amazing.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Please tell others about Perry’s Mission and his story. Please continue to get the word out about rope toys and other dangerous pet products. Please like our Facebook page.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 18px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">And thank you for taking the time to read about Perry. He was so special to us, and he was taken way before his time.</span></div>

My husband is a man of few words and he has a few to say about the fact that Sea World split from Anheuser Bush a few years ago and took away the Hospitality House and our favorite Meal......<br />
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br />
<br />
<br />
<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">
What Happens When Good Theming Goes HORRIBLY HORRIBLY BAD
I would preface all this by saying one thing: I LOVE CARBS especially pizza and pasta.
That being said I would just like to say that the Pizza and Pasta buffet is a big ball of fail at SeaWorld in Orlando. When AnhueserInBev sold the Theme Parks that change was needed. When the building was called the Hospitality House it had a fully functional Quick Service restaurant in the building that offered GREAT meal options one of which was the Beef Stew in a beer bread bowl which is one of the most filling option in ANY theme park quick service eatery. What they have there now seems like a good idea, BUT the food is less than appetizing. I am not sure how you can mess up basic pizza and pasta but it has been done. The pasta was overcooked, the pizza was dry yet covered in sauce, and everything seemed to have been under a heat lamp for FAR too long.
Another place where they have dropped the ball is they had a merchandise location which again was fully functional yet has been ripped out and has now just been turned into additional seating. Now I am always one to see less merch locations and more anything else. But MORE seating no.
The Hospitality House has become anything but hospitable. The building used to have a beer theme but also coincided with the overall theme of the park which was CONSERVATION. There is ZERO of that now. That is like taking the cornerstone out and grinding it for a leech field.
I REALLY wanted to love this new place to eat but I find it hard to stomach.</pre>
<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~</pre>
<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">
</pre>
<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">I Agree Love... I totally do!!!!!! </pre>
<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">
</pre>
<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">I promise you all I will be back soon. IF you miss me ( which I doubt) I am always on Twitter ( @RoraBorieAlice) I am blogging at OnTheGoInMCO.com and You can always count on me for a hot book review on DelightedReader.com</pre>

I am lucky enough to have some amazing friends who let me tag along when they do amazing things! Last night my friend <a href="https://twitter.com/#!/floridamingo" target="_blank">Besty</a> who is a Walt Disney World Cast Member, got the opportunity to stay at the New Art of Animation Resort and invited me and a few friends to stay with her and we got a whole tour of the new family style suites and the property. The resort does not open till the 31st of May and I am SO thankful I got a sneak peek! I am only teasing you with a few of my favorite pictures! Please head over to <a href="http://www.onthegoinmco.com/" target="_blank">OnTheGoInMCO.com </a> for ALL the pictures and the FULL Scoop, Including the exclusive tour of the <a href="http://onthegoinmco.com/2012/05/25/disneys-art-of-animation-preview/" target="_blank">Carsland Suites</a>!!!!</div>

OK so I just got home from being fortunate enough to see a Media Preview of Marvel's The Avengers and all I have to say is WOW !!!!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am NOT a comic book girl. I love my X-Men but, I can honestly say that I have NEVER read a single comic book!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">( Unless Archie and Veronica count because that was always a treat when I was a kid and sick)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I did see Thor and I saw One of the Hulks ( the one with Edward Norton YUMMY) but have not seen any of the Iron Men or Captain America and I could follow this movie with little direction from my brother! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The men.... oh the men....</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The action was AMAZING!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Clarity was GLORIOUS!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I Loved EVERY minute of it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I don't want to post any spoilers because the majority of people wont get to see it for a few weeks but suffice it to say that I will be PAYING to see this on the screen again</div>

So, As you all know I love to read! Or if you are new here, I LOVE to read! I have always been a big reader. I remember being that kid in the summer who would take out like 40 books at a time from the library and winning contests :) Yeah... I was the one who would stay under her covers with a flashlight book reading every single night. I still do but now I lay in bed and read on my Kindle for Android app since my Beloved Kindle Touch ( His Name IS Bernard) Doesn't have a light! I switch between the too daily and actually spent tonight organizing all 605 books I have on him into nice neat little folders! WOW Aurora, This is SOOOOOOOOOOOO interesting! I know, you are jealous of the obviously BOMB Life I lead! It's OK... I get it a lot! My POINT in all of this is that I have a new gig on the interwebs!!! I am a reviewer over at</div>

Both Aurora and I have a love of tea. Coming from Ireland, I grew up drinking five cups a day. Irish tea is some of the strongest you'll find and is best served with milk (not lemon). My parents still mail me packets of Lyons or Barry's teabags so I can keep up my caffeinated habit while living in the United States.<br /><br />But what, you ask, does tea have to do with romance writing? Well, nothing, apart from the fact that this romance writer needs caffeine to create. My romantic suspense series, HOLD ME, THRILL ME, ENTICE ME, from Entangled Publishing was written with the assistance of many Irish teabags, as I typed well into the night in order to finish in time for my deadlines.<br /><br />I have a twenty-two month old daughter who goes to bed around eight pm, and so my writing has to be done post-bedtime. The downside of drinking a caffeinated beverage past three pm in the afternoon and staring at a laptop screen until midnight, is that sleep is elusive.<br /><br />But there's always a cup of tea waiting in the morning when I wake up, to clear out the cobwebs.<br /><br />And there's always the next romance to write.<br /><br />In order to win a copy of HOLD ME and THRILL ME, please leave a <b>tea-related comment</b> (I kid you not) in the comment field.<br /><br />Happy sipping!</span></div>Mocha Princess Aurorahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05192773644934813188noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7887610132533949149.post-78860777974949747822011-09-05T20:57:00.000-04:002011-09-05T00:14:33.045-04:00A SquE-Ztastic Giveaway! ~CONTEST CLOSED~<div style="text-align: center;">~The Winner is~</div><div style="text-align: center;">Lea! aka <a href="http://www.twitter.com/magicalmousecap">@MagicalMouseCap </a></div><div style="text-align: center;">

<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Yes My Dear People! READ ON!!!!
<br />~The <a href="http://www.sque-z.com/#!">SquE-Z</a> Story~
<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">After sitting one day at a restaurant for lunch, we ordered some ice teas. The drinks came out to us with a slice of lemon on the edge of the glass. As we grabbed the slice we all noticed juice running down out glasses, the difficulty we had gripping it, the juice left on our hands, and the seeds that fell into our drinks getting stick in the straw as we drank. From that moment we decided there had to be a better way and so the <a href="http://www.sque-z.com/#!">SquE-Z</a> was born.</div><div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 122px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-mOV5JzuS164/TlmqLGvIYBI/AAAAAAAABw0/-FX7TxCsr8c/s320/Squez3.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5645730715649204242" /></div><div style="text-align: center;">SERIOUSLY GUYS!

I finished it wishing it was longer to be honest ;) She writes with feeling and emotion! It was Steamy and Kept me wanting more! Loved it and Can not wait for there to be others!!!!! </div><div style="text-align: center;">So Please Welcome her and Show her some Love! </div><div style="text-align: center;">~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Thanks for having me Aurora!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Q) What is it that most romance novels have in common? </div><div style="text-align: center;">A) A super-hot man on the cover, usually with his shirt hanging open.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">In my quest for real-life subjects to cast the heroes in my series of three novellas, HOLD ME, THRILL ME, KISS ME KILL ME, I joined a gym. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Alas, no shirtless men. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">"Where are all the ripped guys?" I ask. </div><div style="text-align: center;">"They all leave town," is the answer I receive.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">No, no. That cannot be, I think. Perhaps I am at the wrong gym?</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Soon after, fate (not a quest for hot men) leads me to another fitness establishment that specializes in cross training and jiu jitsu. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Aha! There they all are. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Literally every second man who works out there has the body of a romance cover model and more than occasionally walks around sweaty and shirtless, or does the odd, oh, fifty or so pull-ups.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Yum.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">And now for my part. All my heroines are fit. I figure I'd better get in top shape if I'm going to meet Mr. Cover Model sometime. I wouldn't want to be hypocritical.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">And so, in the pursuit of physical strength and fitness I write about my own semi-fictional heroes: Harrison, Adrian, and Robert, and their journey into love. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">It's nice to have some actual humans to draw from, to know that while romantic heroes are fictional, they're not necessarily complete fantasy.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">And if you think that's the case, you're probably going to the wrong gym!</div><div style="text-align: center;">~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I love this Chick!

Of course, as a tall, green-eyed, four-hundred- year-old vampire, he has centuries’ worth of charm, but unfortunately he expects her gratitude— and servitude. But an inconvenient sunlight allergy and Ethan’s attitude are the least of her concerns. Someone’s still out to get her. Her initiation into Chicago’s nightlife may be the first skirmish in a war—and there will be blood."</div><div style="text-align: right; "><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">LET me tell you that as soon as I read this book I was HOOKED on Merit and Ethan and Catcher and Jeff!

What is the one dream (like fall asleep dream) you miss having now that you sleep during the day?<br /><br /></div>Merit: I don't think my dreams have changed much since I became a vampire. It's pretty much the same dreams.<br />Thinking that I forgot to finish the 11th grade, rushing to finish an exam, that kind of thing. I was in grad school<br />when I was changed, after all.<br /><div class="im" style="color: rgb(80, 0, 80); "><br />2. What besides a Cubs Game in the day light do you miss the most?<br /><br /></div>Merit: Oooh, good question. I miss reading in the sun on the U of C campus. There's a big, grassy quad where we'd sit<br />outside if the weather was nice, maybe with some history or poetry. I miss that a lot. It was so *warm.*<br /><br />3. If you could dress Ethan (although we all prefer him Undressed ;) ) for one day what would be his staple outfit?<br /><br />Merit: Jeans, a T-shirt and flip-flops, just for the change of pace. But the T-shirt should be snug. Very snug. :)<br /><div class="im" style="color: rgb(80, 0, 80); "><br />4. Do you still miss teaching or do you think what you do now is just as rewarding?<br /><br /></div>I miss teaching. I miss hiding out in the library when Chicago is roasting in August. I miss the relief of turning in a<br />paper. What I do now is . . . different. It's a different kind of rewarding, where lives are at stake--literally. Important<br />stuff, even if it's not exactly what I thought I'd be doing.<br /><div class="im" style="color: rgb(80, 0, 80); "><br />5. Given the chance to stock the fridge at the main house for a month, what top 5 Human foods would you introduce<br />to your co workers?<br /><br /></div>Merit: Everything that falls into the pre-made, plastic-wrapped cake category. Twinkies. Little Debbie brownies.<br />Zingers. HoHos. Tastycakes. Entenmann's. And I'll give you one more hint--Mallocakes. But I've said too much! *Zips<br />up lips*<br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; "><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; "><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; font-family: arial, sans-serif; "><span class="Apple-style-span" >MALLOCAKES??? she is killing me with this teasing!

I took it this past weekend to a social media conference at Disney and again got many compliments on it! Its a bit dirty on the standing end from leaning it but, that is to be expected. I will totally get another one of these bags but will scotch guard it next time!</p><p style="margin-top:0.5em">(<a href="http://www.powerreviews.com/legal/terms_of_use.html" rel="license">legalese</a>)</p></div>Mocha Princess Aurorahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05192773644934813188noreply@blogger.com4
