Today, I am here to Bloat about a wonderful company who made AMAZING Sandals. Their name is Chaco Company! They are super comfortable and light weight! This is a milt used Sandal(water, hiking, work, school, trail walks and much more) with style.
If you are a size 5(WOMEN) in Chaco BEWARE most stores only carry them in size 6 and up! Order them online and you might find CHEAPER ones 2. I also have more wonderful news for the ladies who wear a Size 5.....YOU can ALSO get them in size YOUTH 3 and they Still fit your feet!!! How cool is that!
Please if you have any Chaco stories and ideas... Please leave a note and expense your wonderful news to OTHER Chaco LOVERS!!!!!
I try to created my personal touch to this blog. But, I am in need of help on how to put more on this blog. I wish they had instructions for this dame thing.. Excuse my french!!! LOL

Veronica Roth was at blue willow bookshop on friday at 7pm. She was also here at TLA given away insurgent her second book. She is one of the more lay back authors. Roth is a really fun and easy to talk to authors. Her personality is truelly in her writing style... Thank you very much for come to houston,texas. I hope you(Roth) have a safe journey home! I will be praying and thank you for everything.
It was the end of T.L.A. and I was very sad that they had to go! I woke up around four in the morning destine to get DREAMLESS from Harper teen Collins Publisher! I was very happy, it really pay off. Donating the books to Texas Children's Hospital was very rewarding. If you and ANY body who has children books or young adult books and do not want them... Please give them to TEXAS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL!!!!!! (Level 16 to the right and first door on the right side.) They are in need of a lot of books for the children.... Candlewick people who was working the booth was mean about the donation and MADE me pay for the three books that I gave to T.C.H.! Thanks to everybody who HELP me get the books for T.C.H. and of course the authors who sign the books.
It was Teen Book DAy at TLA and the place was PACK to the max. To my surprise Veronica Roth gave copies of INSURGENT, Kristian Cashore was giving out BETTERBLUE and Lauren Kate was given out Rapture. These three books are very HOT right now in the young adult book world. There was a lot of laid back teens from all across TEXAS. I even saw some of my old librarians that I went to school at. I got a bag and a half full of ARC books. The food I ate today was the beef fajitas Nachos with EVERYTHING on it expect spicy items. It was wonderful and better then the BBQ, I had yesterday. I gave it a four star rating for the food overall value.
Tomorrow is going to be the last day of TLA and the Publishers are going to be Given Away ALL the books they have and it is going to be like WAR at George R. Bown Convention Center... getting all these FREE BOOKS!!! It is going to be fun and exiting all at the same time. Tune in for some more updates to come tomorrow!

So, I was at TLA for the first time and had a great time. You know why???? Because, I have THREE BAGS FULL of FREE yes I said it right FREE books (Advance Reader Copy also know as A.R.C.) from tons of publishers. I am really exited to read them and do the reviews on them. Also, on DAY TWO tomorrow there is going to be A LOT more FREE books for TEENS! Yes, my area of specialty. The parking was great only $12 and I had a up close parking space.The food was 3stars(Sausage, beans"Sweet" and something they called Potato Salad!) That was hell of NOT a potato Salad people..... it look more like a potato iceberg salad! They need to get a food change at that place! Anyways you want free books then go to a Library Conference like America Library Conference, Texas Librarian Conference and more..

Man, I can't wait to see her.
Teen Book Con was held at Aleif Taylor High School this past Saturday. Over 25 or more authours took their time out of there busy work to come and express their latest cretion. I had the honor of having all the authors sign my journal and took some silly pitures to post on my blog. This was free to the public and was very cheap food. The way the Taylor Hgh School handled it was very calm and relaxing. I really had a great time and can't wait for the next one next year. Pitures are to come! I am still figuring out how to put them in this account. Please bare with me.
John Carter is a great movie that Disney made! It has a combine of Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Dune and Avatar. Some of the scenes are from these movies.(look a likes) but, these movies stoles some of the background settings in john cater book. So it is like piggy backing book/movie! If you really want a action/adventure movie from Disney Like Pirates of the Caribbean or something like that with a Combine efforts. This Movie has it all for kids and adults of all ages. I give it a four stars because the CGI, Special effects and costumes wear amazing!
I want pinterest on my cell phone (Android Cell Phone) using my Facebook log in. But, no... You have to have pinterest official account! On most of the apps on android phone and kindle fire. Lame....lame.....lame If you are a pinterest lover and want a app for the android makers made one or you have to wait like the rest of us!
After a very early mass (7am) I decided to visit a friend in the hospital in the medical center near downtown Houston. Trying to find Parking at Methodist Hospital Dunn Tower was kind of hard. He was fine and ready to get out of the hospital.
Anyways, I needed to do some homework for spring break field trips so, I decided to go to the Fine Arts Museum Because I NEVER been. (Even back in grade school, when my grade went to this museum... I couldn't go) Students get in FrEe and while I was at the front desk getting my purple sticker... One of the workers gave me a King Tut ticket($30) with audio guild ($7) free of charge. So, Totally for the museum entrance fee AND special exhibit is $47. Lunch was inside the museum Cafe Express, I order a kids burger with cheddar cheese & bacon, fries plus kiddy drink for $8. That was not including the veges that WERE SUPPOSE to be inside the burger! Overall, It was very high price and was worth the free items. I really enjoy myself! In the long run, If you want to visit the museums in Houston,Texas get a Houston CityPass because it is worth your money AND saves you tons of Bling Bling.....
Today, I traveled to Blue Willow Book Shop in Memorial Road/Dairy Ashford Road for the four authors that came today. It was jam pack inside this tiny book shop. I have amazing pictures... This is from the Blue Willow Book shop website! www.bluewillowbookshop.com
