It is especially hard to see this photo of the Opryland Hotel flooded because just 2 weeks ago I was sitting right there, enjoying a glass of wine with some friends who were in town for a convention. And now it is under water and ruined. So sad.
At Target I found a series of new books called Diary of a Wimpy Kid. There are 4 of them in the set so far. They look like a great way to get kids in the 3rd adn 4th grade to read books. I might just buy these for my nephew and give him the whole collection over a period of a year or so. You know, one for his birthday, and then the next one for Christmas, etc.
A 48 hour study of Twitter users on February 8, 9 and 10 of this year found that the Top 5 languages used on Twitter are:
- English (50%)
- Japanese (14%)
- Portuguese (Brazil) (9%)
- Malay (6%)
- Spanish (4%)
Made friends with someone on Facebook and then found out that she lives just a short distance from my place. So we decided to get together at the little Mexican restaurant and meet in real life. I’m really glad that we did – she is nice and I’m looking forward to becoming better friends with Mindy. She has a blog and I’m heading over there to check it out myself.
Hugs to my new friend, Mindy!
