What Kind of Nerdfighter Are You?: I am a multi tiered nedfighter... so complex that it would take an entire blog to explain, so right now I will settle on the procrastinating nerdfighter.

About Me:: I live in Arizona, and prefer to drown myself in local music. Until recently, I ran a website dedicated to supporting and promoting the local scene(AZoverload.com)... and I still have it, but since a move is in my near future I am taking a break and deciding how I wish to continue it. IF I wish to continue it. Since I am no longer engaging in the 3 weekly podcast I did for the site, I have lots of time to post on message boards :-) I have uploaded some of my favorite AZ locals on this page. Check them out!

ONE OF MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE AZ BANDS RIGHT NOW... CHECK OUT MINIATURE TIGERS!!!

Favorite Books, Movies, Music, and more: This year I have read many, and very few I would consider a loss of time. I finished an Abundance of Katherines and am absolutely in love with it... so clever. I also read John Green's Looking for Alaska, which had been on my wishlist at amazon for about 6 months - I got lucky and found this awesome used bookstore called Bookmans.... BOOKMAN'S IS TOTALLY AWESOME, btw.

This time last year my favorite author was Clive Barker. I am a nerd, a collector, and quoter of all things Barker.. so back off.

I kicked off my new years resolution, which involved reading for fun and not crappy computer science books I have spent the last ten years reading for school.. I read The Kite Runner which was totally different than anything I had ever read; I am total Horror Junkie.

Then I slipped back into my favorite genre, young adult. I finished off the the Harry Potter Series, The Golden Compass, The Book Thief, I am the Messenger, Getting the Girl, FIghting Ruben Wolf, The Twilight Series, Tithe, Valient, Ironside, 13 Reasons Why, Story of a Girl, A Certain Slant of LIght, Blue Bloods, The CIty of Ember, The People of Sparks, The Good Neighbors (Holly Blacks Graphic novel... I love graphic novels!!)... and I probably forgot something...

ANYway...

I am at a point where I will read almost anything YA... so if you've got any good suggestions let me know. I have a stack of about 5 sitting on the shelf, but I am devouring them rapidly.

Week of September 15: read Slaughterhouse Five, 13 Little Blue Envelopes
Week of September 22: read Masquerade, reading The Astonishing Life of Octavian Nothing Traitor to the Nation (hold on that one... I sort of lost interest in this book, and instead of reading through 300 more pages - I sort of tabled it, and will come back to it later.. when I run out of books :-)
Week of September 29: 21 Proms (sorry Octavian I just bought 5 new books yesterday... it's going to be a while before we rekindle our friendship), Peeps
Week of October 6: Tyrell, reading Sight
Week of October 13: read Paper Towns, Sight
Week of October 20: finished Sight, Let it Snow
Week of October 27: started Marked
Week of November 3: NaNoWriMo, finished Marked, reading Revelations
Week of November 10:finished Revelations, Reading Betrayed... still NaNoWriMo

What's your favorite thing to put on your head?: rainbow ponies

If you could do your happy dance with anyone who would it be with?: Mike Patton :-)

The Mission: Sticky-ING Paper Towns!!!

I cheated.

I didn't have to wait until today to get Paper Towns, Borders in Tolleson/Avondale had it on the shelf on Monday, so I bought it.

Don't hate.

I finished the book today :-) Besides working, I am also a domestic super hero, so I couldn't read it non-stop-all-in-one-day.

After watching Hank's post on YouTube this morning, I decided I would take part in the "challenge."

1. Take pics with the book and post them all over the place... I… Continue
