Competition
To welcome new members to my Yahoo group, I have a little competition.
Listen to the Shaytonian Chronicles podcast http://shayton.podomatic.com/ and tell me how either you, or one of your characters, would react to being in Tony's situation. (If you are female, imagine if it was a male asking you to be a mother to a godling)

Apparently I have been tagged.
OK so what's this tagging bit about?
Apparently I have to post 8 random facts about myself here in my blog. Then I let the person who tagged me know (Hi Colleen). Then I get to inflict...I mean share it with eight others. OK so go for it guys.

Wow,
So many friendly people. I would definitely be happy recommending this place to all my friends.

Time Out for Kindle Reading
Our local library has 8 kindles available for its patrons. The DH and I both got on the waiting list, mainly so I could use one. His number was reached and we picked up the kindle on Sunday afternoon. Now I've got a kindle to read for 2 weeks! So far I'm really loving it, especially the current book I'm reading, My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult.What about you? Do you own a kindle? Or, have you tried someone else's? Would you like to?
Who's Doing Cyber Monday?
I'm very carefully going to check out the Cyber Monday deals. I have a few items in mind that I plan to buy, but it would be very nice if they'd go on sale and save me some money. I won't be spending much. Can't afford to do so this year.What about you?
Did You Shop on Black Friday?
There's still time to take the poll to the left about what you ate at Thanksgiving.About Black Friday -
The DH despises mob scenes, but my brother and I do love the adventure of shopping on Black Friday. We weren't courageous enough to get up at the crack of dawn, though, so we did miss out on a few goodies, like the snuglee blankets and pots and pans sets at Menards, and some other items. I did manage to get some work gloves at almost 50 cents each pair, and a boot/shoe dryer which sounded interesting and was less than $9.00. The biggest extravagance there was this turntable with MP3 encoding/AM FM radio combination thing, but that was only $49.00, which isn't too bad. I didn't go for any of the high ticket items.
I didn't do too bad, but do have some Staples rebates to send in. They're pretty easy to do online, so I don't mind doing them. I bought some USB flash drives, batteries, and CD rewrites there.
I also bought a reversible light grey, almost white bubble coat and some grey boots at Walmart, both items $7.00 each, which I plan to use walking Rascal.
What about you? Did you shop on Black Friday? If so, what kind of deals did you get?
So, this year I was pretty practical, but it was still fun and I did get a few things I hadn't expected to find.
What about you? Did you shop on Black Friday? If so, what kind of finds did you get?
Did you eat any of these foods at Thanksgiving dinner?
Since it's a busy time and an eating time, here's an easy poll to take in the left column. It's okay to pick multiple answers as long as they don't conflict. You can also leave a comment about a particularly favorite dish, if you wish.Morgan

Rascal is sleeping right now. When she gets up, you'll know about it.
When RASCAL wakes up, you'll hear from her and/or her Mom - that would be me, Morgan Mandel.

Fact 1: When asked what I don't do, I do not eat beetroot.
(What part of a bee is its troot?)
Fact 2: I hate leeches...
(News flash: So does the whole world.)
Fact 3: My favourite teddy bear was called Isabel.
(Mine was Charlie Manson.)
Fact 4: I found that if you are doing a science project on fish, do not own a cat.
(Sounds like the only way to go, if you ask me.)
Fact 5: If you do own a cat, be sure that they are not so heavy the glass on the top of the fish tank breaks dumping said cat and glass into the tank.
(That's even better.)
Fact 6: If your fish dies of a heartattack because of falling cat, you can turn a tank into a terraium and still get a decent mark.
(You are one fortunate pet owner.)
Fact 7: When asked for facts about myself, I find it hard to think of anything.
(Trust me, that's okay.)
Fact 8: When I get to the last fact, I feel a wave of relief.
(Lord have mercy, me, too.)
