Random fact Wednesday


The dot over the letter “i” is called a tittle.

What I’m listening to right now: Coldplay, Speed of Sound

Well double good news. First, yesterday I weighed myself for the first time since mid-December. I did not want to know the numbers during the holidays–amidst sweets and treats.

Anyway, I’m DOWN one pound. I didn’t gain any weight over Christmas! So that’s 12lbs down total since September. Slowly, but surely. I worked out again last night and am a little sore. I swear I love having an MP3 player though. Beyonce kicks off my playlist (since my player only goes alphabetically–wtf?!) and she just gets me going.

The second piece of good news is that Dangerous Grounds hit #7 on the best seller list yesterday! It changes daily, sometimes hourly maybe? I don’t know, but I’m always totally excited when it slips lower on the list. And the first review for it just rolled in! (So maybe three pieces of good news!)

“Shelli has done it again. The suspense, mystery and holy smokes—the heat between Gabe and Madison would cause spontaneous combustion without flicking an eyelash… Dangerous Grounds has become the latest keeper in Shelli’s works as far as I’m concerned.” 5 flags, Melisa, Euro Reviews

And in case you haven’t noticed, I’m kind of *cough* getting into this smiley thing. Sorry, they’re addictive.
<---Notice how I emphasized my smiley addiction with another smiley.

Happy Wednesday!

    You’re obsessed with the smilies! And I lost the link you sent me! I’m such a loser.

    You’re doing awesome all around! Congrats! ;)

    Congrats Shelli - not gaining weight over the Holidays is fantastic.

    I’m about 1/2 way thru Dangerous Grounds, in fact Sunday night I was up until 1am reading. I’m a slow reader, but it was also a very busy weekend.

    I have enjoyed every chapter, every encounter, every word thus far but the closer I am to the end the less I want to read, because the end means it’s over. It’s a weird thing, it means I like the characters.

    YEAH for the fantastic review and the climb to towards the top of the list.
