Have a lovely break!

Is this the Memorial Day long weekend?

I have no idea what Memorial Day is or why you all have a four day weekend, but have fun and safe travels to you all!

I was about to say that I do know that you're not supposed to wear white after Memorial Day, but now that I think about it, that can't be right, because your summer is just beginning, so that holiday am I thinking of?

Our holidays are really basically named here - Australia Day, Queen's Birthday, Show Holiday - it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what we're celebrating, which is probably a good thing, because most Aussies are drunk by 9am on a holiday anyway!

Ooops! Love Rescue Me is complete, the EPOV of V&V 

I meant the sequel Lullabies and Eternal Love which is still a WIP

As promised, here is the list I was OCDing on...

I now set it free from my "things that make me batshit... I have to finish it" list
 

Epubs don't work on Kindle.  Which is why I have epubs for my tablet and mobi for the Kindle.  And PDF for most of the old stories LOL!   Calibre is really good ad keeping them sorted.  If only I didn't add stories faster than I can update the metadata. ...

Memorial Day is a day we're supposed to honor those who died fighting for our country.

Unless you live in the semi-tropics or tropics, you're not supposed to wear white until Memorial Day (in the US).  I think that rule is one that is honored in the breach.  Especially with winter white pants, white clothes worn at Easter, etc.  I distinctly remember wearing white gloves at Easter time as a child, which meant white shoes.

  Can you guys tell me more about The Darkest Hour?    So, it takes place after Edward was turned and before Twilight?   What are the other sequels?    Are they all "romance" with an HEA?   

Edited to add:   I found this link: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login that explains more about The Darkest Hour.  (I think someone posted it previously and I missed it!  Thanks for posting)   I was and still am completely gaga over the Twilight series so I think I'll start this after I finish Fridays At Noon.    If there is some awful non-HEA ending, can someone please warn me.      LOL During the last movie when they had that scene that was really playing out in Alice's mind...  where they killed Carlisle and almost killed Edward, I cried like a big ol' baby!   Couldn't handle it if a fic did that too me.   

We're always more organized with our obsessions than the rest of our life, right?  I can always find excuses to let the housework go for a little longer.

I have to admit, when you started talking about colons, punctuation was not the first thing that leaped into my mind.  I was seriously wondering how we got onto the topic of colons (with the gastric meaning) from what was being discussed previously.  Then I had a  moment and realized you meant punctuation. 

I read Never Sleep in a Strange Man's Bed ages ago on Twilighted and enjoyed it very much.  I wonder if it's still on Twilighted's top ten list.

Housework? What is housework?  Are you saying organizing my Calibre library doesn't count?

Sigh, my house really needs cleaning.  But I need my husband to help me move some furniture I bought to help with the organizing.  Okay, they are mostly bookshelves because our house has books everywhere.  That and paper are my killers. I need to spend the next month shredding stuff.

Okay, I'm tired just thinking about it.

LOL! As long as Amazon doesn't complain, it is free back up storage!!!

I'm mostly organizing my fanfiction.  The ebooks kind of organize themselves at this point.  And I only worry about the completed stories.  I figure, until it is complete, I will either read it on ffnet or wait.  It's just that, I have way too much stuff downloaded.  But all that pulling of stories last year scared me so much, that even if it just looks interesting?  I pull it. And sometimes anything else by that author.  Because what if I like her writing?  Sigh.  There is addictive behavior at work here. 

I'm just glad it shows up in reading and not in actual drugs or alcohol. LOL! [

I'd have to buy a wine cellar or something. 

I'm the opposite with the organizing.  I feel like my fanfic is pretty organized, but not the other reading material I have on my computer.  But I do tend to go overboard with the fanfic hoarding.  Including pulling every story my an author if I'm even a little interested in one of that author's stories.  I don't usually pull the slash or non-canon, though.  At some point, I'm sure I'll regret that decision, but I force myself to stick with it.
