“Few things leave a deeper mark on the reader, than the first book that finds its way to his heart.” Carlos Ruiz Zafon

In a text post, list ten books that have stayed with you in some way. Don’t take but a few minutes, and don’t think too hard — they don’t have to be the “right” or “great” works, just the ones that have touched you. Tag some friends and make sure you let your friends know you’ve tagged them. Here are mine, in no particular order (except that Perks is my favorite)::

1. The Perks of Being a Wallflower - Stephen Chbosky 
2. The Harry Potter series - JK Rowling 
3. To Kill a Mockingbird - Harper Lee 
4. Matilda - Roald Dahl 
5. The Indispensable Calvin and Hobbes - Bill Watterson 
6. Animal Farm - George Orwell 
7. Bitter is the New Black - Jen Lancaster 
8. Odd Thomas series - Dean Koontz 
9. Macbeth - William Shakespeare 
10. Where the Sidewalk Ends - Shel Silverstein

Tagging:: chrystimoreorless, auspiciouspatti, runswithpoodle, themotherrunner… I haven’t been paying close attention, so there’s a chance these ladies have already participated. :D

I want to try a food truck. I’ve never seen one.

This was my first food truck experience! One of the reasons I wanted to do this race (we did a 5K race beforehand) was because the sign we saw advertising it touted the gourmet food trucks after the race. I'm an hour from a major city so food trucks don't come out to my neck of the woods often (or ever). I hope they have more events like this one - I loved sampling things from the different trucks.

I’ve had these questions myself.

Good to know I am not the only one.

I understand that feeling of being in pain and no one believes you. I hurt all the time! It stinks.

I am sorry you hurt too.  I guess though that one of the things I am learning from tumblr is how to push through the pain a little.  Tonight I am relaxing under a warm electric blanket, but tomorrow I will try again.  I hope you can too.  

BTW, you look great as a brunette.

It's a race mug! The Martian Marathon. Happens every April in Dearborn, MI. :) the medals are alien heads, too. It's a sweet race.

That thing is quite cool.
