Yesterday I was looking for a book. In Rural City that meant cruising Amazon & placing an order or borrowing a book from a friend.
Metropolis has a few more options. Not only do we have a Barnes & Noble, we also have 2 libraries relatively close by & they are staffed by people who enjoy books & children. What an amazing concept!
So T~ & I are in search of some books. T~ found a few, her new favorite is Catalina Magdelena Hoopensteiner Wallendiner Hogan Logan Bogan Was Her Name. The girl loves her word salads… Anyway, I’m cruising the new stuff & find No Time to Wave Goodbye. I’d read The Deep End of the Ocean years ago & it was a good albeit disturbing read. I like a good sequel so I picked it up.
And put it down last night at 1:30.
I’m a little tired.
The book was okay. In retrospect, it was not Reading Till 1:30am Worthy. There were a few chapters that went on way longer than necessary – I’m talking about you Sheriff Swift & your endless monologue about what kind of weather a rescue team can do an effective search & why you won’t authorize one now & egads, the formula & supply debate too…
Anyhoodle, I baked & salsa’d (fruit salsa, not the dance) & bejeweled trying to stave off a nap. Now I’m just a little cranky, the camera won’t download the pictures so I can’t do the blog post I was originally planning, & the internet is really slow tonight. But the kids are in bed, I maintained my composure while E~, instead of getting ready for bed, was doing his Risky Business Impression (he didn’t know that’s what he was doing, he thought he was only being ‘funny’. He says funny, I say annoying). Now I’m going to finish this post that is way longer than it needs to be, find my jammies, snuggle under the covers & read my next book until I fall asleep. The book is written by a well-known politician so that shouldn’t take long.
K~
