i know. i’ll miss blogger too! but BUT if you
take the time to comment, i’ve made sure that
you can look like a funny alien thingy. =) i seemed
to have been randomly assigned to a rather goofy
looking one–but it’s probably appropriate. ha!
i feel like my alien avatar of late.
right now, i’m up in los angeles hanging out as
it’s my mom’s birthday! as much as i don’t like
LA (it’s a monstrosity in size and the freeways
are loopy), i DO love the food
here. =) i’ve had some awesome dim sum and will
have japanese at a small wine house type restaurant
(according to my mom) for dinner before zipping back
with two dozing over-indulged and over-exhauseted
bubs in the back of the wagon tonight. (and yes, i
do drive a wagon. ha! with wood side panels. just
kidding.)
it’s spring break this week, and then we’ll return
to our regularly scheduled programming! i just
finished SKIN HUNGER by kathleen duey and loved
it. such a gripping read, i especially loved two interwoven
stories of the characters from two time periods in their
lives. kathleen has graciously agreed to an interview over
at the enchanted inkpot, so i’ll keep you posted! =)
i haven’t quite decided what i’ll read next. i’ll let you
know when i settle on something. in the mean time,
happy easter to everyone who celebrates! we’ll probably
be poking in tide pools and digging holes in the sand
at the beach…

hi. i’m posting to see if i’ll get the same alien here.
ARGH! i have been typecast into GOOFY BEFUDDLED PURPLE ALIEN.
*sighs* i guess…it’s about right.
Your blog doesn’t register on my blog roll :(
I did, however, pre-order your book today. Teehee
Hi Cindy!
Congrats on your new site! I am going to miss blogger too but I do love those cute little critters at the side!!
Lesley
sara–argh! i wonder if i can be on your blog roll even if i’m not on blogger? probably not? =(
and your alien is so much cuter than mine!
lesley–thank you! and i like your alien more too! haha! you’d think as the “owner” of this blog–they’d let me choose my alien. but no.
sara–you are the SAME alien as before! teehee!!! what do you think of her?
I want an alient! I want an alien!
Me too! Me too!
……(instead I got my picture: close enough, I guess.) :)
I always wondered what my alien-self looked like.
Hee hee hee … like you, I, too, want to see if I am the same alien again. And you know what? I AM THE SAME ALIEN ON ANOTHER SITE!!!!
Lesley
PS If you are not careful, you are gonna have me commenting loads here just to see my alien! HA!! Hmmm … I look a little demented …
Like Sunna, my alien is just me. At the age of 2, I believe. I do have convincingly alien hair, though.
I’m just stopping by to say hello for your blog-warming :D
My goofy alien has wings! Yea!
Blog warming party! Woot! So what kind of alien am I?
haha! i love your aliens! for the foto folks–i tried adding it just on my user profile but apparently it’s more complicated than that? i’m not sure if i want a foto anyway! haha!
your alien avvy is OMNIPRESENT! or something.
gosh, i really love jen and karen’s is like trying to be sexay. haha!
rose, yours just cracks me up. haha!
sue, thanks for commenting! =D
I’m commenting. So you can see what kind of alien I am.
There are lots of hunger books on my reading list now…SKIN HUNGER, THE HUNGER GAMES…am I missing any???
Enjoy LA!
I hope I’m a cute alien ;)
Oh! Weird! I’m not an alien! I’m me? Why am I the only one who doesn’t get an alien? *bangs head on table*
Me? An alien? Yes!!
Like the new site design, by the way.
Um, excuse me, some of us already know what kind of alien we are. That is to say, the powerful, benevolent, all-knowing kind. ;)
Yay for spring break! I need to remember to put this link in my sidebar now. Going. Right now.
Oh, if you haven’t read it, you should read The Forest of Hands and Teeth!
Love the new site. :-)
I have a feeling I’m not going to be a cool alien.
Ooh, but I am. I thought for sure my wordpress avatar was going to come up. Huh. Now I’m confused.
juliette–you have your foto loaded into wp. i don’t know how, but i think i will keep my befuddled alien. hehehe!
faust–you don’t haz alien. =( oh well.
jordyn, thank you for playing!
tara–you win for angriest alien. hahaha!
omg, i cannot decide which i like more between natalie, suz and tracey’s. *giggles* hahahaaha!
how many unique aliens can they make?
I get to be an alien? Yay!
This is lovely, but it takes some getting used to : (
happy birthday to your mom! i love the new redesign by the way. :)
kiersten, hahahaha! that is so not you. you look like you have oven mitts on. i know i miss le blogger too. but wp is good as i can change contents of my entire website by myself!
mariel–you are like the sumo squatter! hee!!
Love the site! Very pretty. The aliens are great!
:D
I went in to Barnes & Noble yesterday and put your book on reserve. I hope they put it out before the official day. I’d just rather not wait.
Am very curious what alien I will be. If it’s just a pic of me, won’t you be suspicious that maybe I AM an alien???
Oh. My alien rocks.
jacqui, hahahahaha! you are the angry heart-shaped kick arse alien. omg!
imazdi thank you! <3
liz, i see you are a wp person already with a lovely fish avvy? =D
jacqui, yes your alien does rock. no one is surprised. i bet if you looked like that, everyone would listen to you at home all the time. ha!
I want an alien, too!
Hi Cindy! Hmm, that sounds weird since I usually call you by your old webbie nickname! Hahaha! What should I call you when I visit at your LA signing? :-)
I wonder why my Blogger list shows that you haven’t posted for two days. It says pine-1.jpg is the last post. It’s a lie! However, if I click on your name it brings me to the current happenings. *shurg*
brian–you have no alien! you can call me cindy. ms pon if you’re nastay. =p
imazadi, why? why blogger lies?
Obviously blogger’s mommy didn’t teach it not to lie. I just don’t know what this world is coming to. ;op
darn, no alien face for me. but my real face is even scarier! must be picking it up from some other site that i’m registered on.
So lets see about aliens first thing in the morning shall we!
Hmm, I wonder what alien I will get!
hee! you got a really cute one, rebecca!
