Monday was Valentine's Day. Mike and I went out for pizza slices (because we're such the romantics) and we finally checked Toronado's, this local brew house that we've been hearing about. The place was so awesome, and they featured $3 local brews on Mondays. So it was great to sample some of the amazing beers that San Diego brewing companies have to offer. My beer of choice that night was called "My bloody Valentine" by AleSmith Brewing Co. It was a strong amber ale, and very very tasty. For 2 people that don't celebrate Valentine's Day we had an awesome time out.
The rest of the week was pretty mellow here, just stressing about the fact that there are so few good jobs out there. I'll be continued to hunt this week, so please keep your fingers crossed for me. Here's what else is coming up...

I used the last of my Christmas gift certificate this week *sobs* to nab some books I've been drooling over for a while. I picked up Nightshade by Michelle Rowen, First Grave on the Right by Darynda Jones, and Queen of Shadows by Dianne Sylvan
Reading:
Demon Song by Cat Adams, The Morcai Battalion: Invictus by Susan Kyle and Nightshade by Michelle Rowen

Giveaways:
Jaye Wells, author of the Sabina Kane series, will be stopping by for a round of Q&A on Tuesday.
Glad you had such a good time with your family and I'm sure that some away time was very nice! Can't wait to read some more reviews on some books I haven't read or heard about yet so I'll keep my eyes peeled for that! Good luck with the job hunting Jess, try not to stress about it too much I know something will work out! :-)
ReplyDeleteI am very curious about First Grave... Of course, you'll get to it first. I'm anxious to see what you thought. And of course, I'm wondering how you found Backstage Pass. ;)
ReplyDeleteYou are going to LOVE Queen of Shadows!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to start First Grave - I think in April.
