		<title>This Too Shall Pass</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A couple of weeks ago, a friend of ours who is currently battling colon cancer put this video up on his blog.  (OK Go &#8211; yes, the treadmill guys &#8211; has requested that embedding be disabled on the video, so I can&#8217;t post it directly here.)  Mark decided that since this was going [...]]]></description>

		<title>Who&#8217;s got the best husband in the world?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve got the best husband in the world!

Paramore Valentines (designed by JT Daly of Paper Route, in fact)! Jeff found them online a few weeks ago and thought they would be perfect. I can honestly say this is probably one of the coolest gifts I&#8217;ve ever gotten.
Gents, take this as proof that, if you know [...]]]></description>

		<title>2010 YALRC, Book 3 &#8211; Hush, Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
For my third book of the 2010 YA Lit Reading Challenge, I chose Hush, Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick. I was pretty excited about reading it, because a lot of my friends (whose taste in books is usually right in line with mine) really enjoyed it. 
To sum up, this book is about 16 year old [...]]]></description>

		<title>2010 YALRC, Book 2 &#8211; Shiver, by Maggie Stiefvater</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
I read the description of this book and immediately decided that it sounded like what would&#8217;ve happened in Twilight if Jacob had won. Boy, was I wrong. And that&#8217;s not a bad thing.
Shiver is the story of Grace and Sam, a girl and her wolf. Sam spends every summer human, but, due to being attacked [...]]]></description>

		<title>2010 YALRC, Book 1: Fire, by Kristin Cashore</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
As I mentioned in my last post, I&#8217;ve entered a YA Lit Reading Challenge for 2010. My goal is to read 25 YA Lit books over the course of the year. I&#8217;m hoping I surpass that goal, but we&#8217;ll see.
In any case, my first selection this year was Fire, by Kristin Cashore. It&#8217;s a companion [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hello, 2010</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t know why, but it seems like everyone had a fairly crappy 2009. Mine wasn&#8217;t what I would call an epic fail, but it wasn&#8217;t the easiest year I&#8217;ve ever had, either. Lots of stress, lots of worry, and lots of time spent obsessing over things that were beyond my control. 
I&#8217;m not really [...]]]></description>

I know everyone and their dog has done one of these lists where they blather on about how awesome 2009 was, music-wise, and then [...]]]></description>
