New Look

I've changed the appearance of my blog a little. The layout is the same but the dots are gone (which I loved but was a little tired of) and the background is such a lovely color. I also changed the title of my blog from What's Up With Erin ? (a truly lame title) to Erin the Librarian (which is in no way lame!). I was going to keep the old title but when I went to familylobby.com to get the glitter text it would not include the '?' in the formatting. Strange. Any who, it's a little different and may be tweaked some more here and there over the next few days.

I'll be sure to post about my high school reunion I attended a couple weekends ago. Nothing cosmic but I'm glad I went all the same. I'm reading the first installment in the Grimm Sisters series' The Fairy-Tale Detectives. The series is wildly popular with the kids. Hopefully I'll be able to discuss it with a few of them and there will no doubt be a movie adaptation soon. So far the book is very cute. I went to see Wanted at the cinema two weekends ago. Please do not see this movie! The language was awful, the special effects were The Matrix on acid, the acting was pitiful, and I wish I could erase the whole experience from my mind. I did finally see Penelope, also with James McAvoy, and it was a very sweet movie. It followed the book closely and I would recommend it for family viewing or as a g-rated girl's night in. I still have not seen The Dark Knight but I've got my finger's crossed for this weekend. I just read an article about Tropic Thunder and I'd like to see that one as well.

The spider situation at 'Vermin Palace' is under control for the moment. I'll be sure to keep you updated on any future developments: wasps, tarantulas, komodo dragons, and other average, everyday, household pests.
