So because I crave organization (I bet my Giraffe is laughing at this statement), I am in love with websites that help me out. Thanks to Posie, I discovered a wonderful little community that helps you organize your knitting and crocheting projects. At the moment, you have to sign up to get on the waiting list because it's in beta mode, but soon that will not be the case. It's called Ravelry (cute name!) and here's a peek at what it looks like from the inside!

It reminds me of another one of my favorite websites, Goodreads. Goodreads allows you to set up an electronic library of the books you have read, are reading, and want to read. Gone are the days when I would wander around the bookstore or library aimlessly asking myself, "Now, what was it I wanted to read?" If I remember to check my list, this is no longer a problem. It's also a nice way to see when you read a certain book to bring back childhood memories. I have everything on my list from the Boxcar Children books that I read in elementary school to things I read in my college lit class like Gilgamesh and Dante's Inferno. If you can see in this little picture, the last book I finished was "Big Boned" by Meg Cabot. Fun little read to fall asleep to.

I'm currently reading 4 books, which is a first for me to have more than one book at a time, because I feel the need to satisfy those different parts of my brain. I have a health book, a biography, a bestseller, and now a book on CD that everyone read in middle school to listen to
while driving to work and everyone is either road-raging, applying make-up, or fighting to stay awake. Not me. I will be reliving those awkward moments of my youth where no one felt pretty and everyone was singing Bush and Nirvana. Yeah, I'm a young'un.

They might not be applying makeup (while sitting at annoyingly slow stoplights that only let three cars through at a time), but rather, correcting smudges from earlier, hasty, running-out-the-door-late application.
Tee hee.
