Top Ten Tuesday: Or Not...?

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by the wonderful ladies over at

The Broke And The Bookish!

This week, the topic is...
Top Ten Books To Get In The Halloween Spirit

I have absolutely no idea how to answer this question.  At all.  No clue.

I'm really not a huge fan of Halloween.  I never have been.  Pumpkins and fall, yes.  Halloween, meh.

Therefore, I'm not sure how to answer this question.  I was going to approach it from a perspective of "Top Books Written About Things Kids Dress Up As" approach, but decided against that too.  My Top Ten Tuesdays are becoming very repeatative, and my list was more of the same.

So here is my cheater's way of participating...

Top Ten Things I Would Dress Up As For Halloween This Year If I Didn't Have To Be At The Hospital For 7 AM The Next Morning And Actually Got To Have Fun

This is just sad to me... (Source)

1. A Power Ranger
2. An Assassin
3. Sailor Mars
4. A Ballerina
5. A Cat
6. A Baseball Player
7. A Hockey Player
8. A Referee
9. A "Puck Bunny"
10. A Pirate

Hope that wasn't too exciting for you guys.  What are you guys being for Halloween this year?  Or tell me about a super-awesome costume you had in the past!

Much love, Samantha

Happy Thanksgiving!

I would like to extend a Happy Thanksgiving to everyone from good ol' Canada-land, or to anyone else celebrating anything this weekend!

2012 has proven to be a wonderful year, and I'm thankful for so many things.  I am thankful for my family, who have supported me through everything and been there every step of the way.  I am thankful for my friends that have stayed my friends, despite the distance between us.  I am thankful for my roommates, who are generally nothing like the horror stories you hear.  I am thankful for the ability to read and write, for without that I would be nothing.  I am thankful for the ability to dance, which saved me many years ago.  I am thankful for the opportunity to go to school and pursue a profession, so that one day I can be even half the mother mine has been.  I am thankful for the food I was able to enjoy this weekend.

And I am thankful for you guys.  When I started this blog, I just wanted a space to rant.  I may not be the best blogger in the world, but the fact that I continue to get page hits each day means so much to me.  So, thank you.

As a side note, I seriously want one of these...

And now that I've said that, time for more pie!

Much love, Samantha
