10. It’s been awhile since I’ve done Top Ten. I have much to discuss. We’ve seen Star Wars obviously. Twice. I have yet to see this episode of Golden Girls though….
9. Nalini Singh has a new anthology coming out this summer. Wild Embrace – and it looks like there are some good stories included:
Echo of Silence
In a deep-sea station, Tazia Nerif has found her life’s work as an engineer, keeping things running smoothly. But she wants nothing more than to break down the barrier of silence between her and her telekinetic Psy station commander…
Dorian
A changeling who can never shift lives a life of quiet frustration—until he learns how to let his leopard come out and play…
Partners in Persuasion
Still raw from being burned by a dominant female, wolf changeling Felix will never again risk being a plaything. But for dominant leopard Dezi, he’s the most fascinating man she’s ever met. She just has to convince this gun-shy wolf that he can trust the dangerous cat who wants to take a slow, sexy bite out of him…
Flirtation of Fate
Seven years ago, Kenji broke Garnet’s heart. Now the wolf packmates have to investigate the shocking murder of one of their own. And the more Kenji sees of the woman Garnet has become, the deeper he begins to fall once more. But even his primal instincts are no match for the dark secret he carries
Gimme!!!
8. We all love Chewie from Star Wars, right?? He has some cute scenes in The Force Awakens. But have you met the man under the hairiness?
He’s the tall one in the middle. 6’10 – pretty cute, right? His name is Joonas Suotamo and you can stalk him on Twitter.
7. You can now get your own head (or anyone’s head) on a lego minifigure! Legos are a big deal in my house – and I think this might have to happen for upcoming birthday gifts. (Why did I birth my children in the winter, which gives me no break between Christmas and buying more gifts for birthdays??)
3D printing is pretty cool – check out the Etsy store.
6. Yes, my hubs and I are watching Making a Murderer with the rest of the country. (Those that have watched will understand the above card *wink*) If you haven’t heard of it, it’s a Netflix documentary about a man named Steve Avery, who was falsely imprisoned for twenty years for rape, released, and then a few years later, arrested for murder. BUT DID HE DO IT? Or is he being set-up by the police because they were going to owe him a lot of money for his previous false sentence?
I watch this late at night and then I dream about it all night. Whether you think Avery is guilty or innocent, it’s the kind of show that evokes a lot of emotion and a lot of debate. My hubs and I have a lot to say to one another after each episode.
5. This could be the best invention of all time. The above looks like normal hoodies, right?
But then you blow up the hood like a balloon – and this happens:
It turns into a pillow! A hoodie pillow!! So you can nap whenever you feel like it — and keep your head warm and cozy. Then you can deflate when you are done. Brilliant. Link
4. This is so fun. Jenna Dewan-Tatum dancing to Pony in Lip-Sync Battle – which includes her giving Channy Tay Tay a lap dance. LOVE. And then Tay Tay dances as Beyonce. ;)
3. Your Friday cute.
2. The Powerball drawing is tomorrow. The jackpot is $700 million – so go buy yourself a ticket!! Make 2016 a good year, y’all! I told my husband if we win, I want to buy a farm and raise mini donkeys. He didn’t seem to think my plans were grand enough. Mini donkeys are everything.
We have a mini donkey rescue farm near us. If we only had one more acre I would adopt one!!!
1.My son has a robotics lego tournament tomorrow and then we have his birthday celebrations on Sunday. How is it my eldest son is going to be twelve?? Have a great weekend!! Read something smexy!

Hiya Mandi! That Lip Sync Battle video was AWESOME!! Love the mini donkeys! Where are they at? Is it a farm you can visit here in Maryland? I’d love to go see them! So cute. Happy new year, sweetie!
Eliza says
Read something smexy? May I recommend Roni Loren’s Off the Clock? I’m 75% of the way through and I think it’s the best erotic romance I’ve ever read. And I’ve read a lot.
Liz (Bugetta) says
OMG! The Lipsync Battle video totally made my day! Thanks for doing the Top 10 list. You always find such fun stuff to share!
Aurian says
Awesome top10! and I do love donkeys, but you have to keep them in pairs or they get lonely.

I want a miniature donkey in the worst way. I have almost 6 acres. I have 2 neighbors within 1 mile. I stop to see them all the time. Does anyone know of a rescue in Ohio.
