Dead To The World

I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone younger than 17.

however - in my opinion it is the perfect book series to read around twilight while eating red raspberries, if you get my drift...

Yes. I went there.

Its television version appears under the title of True Blood

Watch With Caution

It is extremely graphic and addicting... funny how that works

Also, if you are single and female (most likely), Aleksander Skarsgard's character of Eric Northman will have you begging for more.

unexpected surprises

I mean... are there any other kind of surprises?
   I must admit, I never would have guessed that I would get to meet my childhood crush

Tom Felton... or most people would know him as Draco Malfoy

"To Megan Love Tom Felton - Draco xxx"

My signed copy of Half-Blood Prince

Of course... he is going to shake off his Harry Potter character quite soon,

this month in fact

Unfortunately for me, however, within the 30 seconds I had to talk with him, my standards for men have raised significantly higher

If only all celebrities were as charming and gentlemen-like (and had british accents)

heat wave

  another day above 105 degrees

only one place to go in the midwest with these conditions

Dunes National Lakeshore

Lake Michigan

Just a 20 minute drive and I'm at the beach... one of our best kept secrets

I firmly believe that out of all the midwest folks, we in the "region"

have it best

hottest day of the century

on hot days like today, the most important thing you can do is stay hydrated

                    even my outdoor friends know how important this is

lunch consisted of crisp chicken caesar salad with raspberry lemonade

healthy and refreshing

so far this summer i have: climbed an extinct volcano, hiked to a hidden waterfall, surfed a south shore swell, hanged out with some monk seals, won a triathlon with an awesome team, & witnessed the end of my favorite childhood story Harry Potter

    bittersweet

hopefully the weather loosens up a bit
