Love and War

So WonderBoy pointed out how most of my code names were Spanish related. I totally didn't notice as I was doling them out. Gregory is normal, though! That's actually a real name! (WonderBoy also requested that his name be one word. It makes it more super hero-esque.)

It's surprising how many of my dear friends have taken the time to read this. :) And it's also really funny to think that I write it as if people I don't know might read it, too. Hey, who knows: maybe strangers run across it and amuse themselves for a brief second before moving on. I'm just being cautious and taking all possibilities into consideration. *nod*

So when you google my pen name, my blog comes up on the fourth page! How exciting is that? It is the 34th link to appear. I guess there aren't many famous Nina Cabreras. (I also tried typing in the URL and the title of the blog, but those weren't as effective. I gave up after about 12 pages of river essays and online Bible databases.)

I really don't have the time to spare to be doing this. :) I should be studying bio or history or working on my extended essay or cleaning my cluttered room or anything productive! Instead, I am testing the googlability of my blog. And making up new words to describe the meaningless ways I wile away my time.

So my right shoulder is peeling but my left shoulder is not. I have patches of brown, burnt, dry skin; soft, pink patches where one layer has come off; and raw, red patches were two layers have been removed. I get impatient and start picking at it. It comes off like a sticker, or that really thin layer of plastic that packages the stacks of looseleaf paper. You can hear it peeling off. It's actually really gross.

Not to abruptly change the topic or anything, but my favorite band has just released a new cd!!! Barlow Girl's latest album, Love and War, actually hit the shelves earlier this month but I wasn't up-to-date on things and totally missed it. :) I listened to their whole CD on Rhapsody.com and absolutely LOVED it! I am also completely psyched because they are coming to town in November! If all goes well, I will be attending a concert soon. And if all goes well, you will definitely hear about it.
