Sox, were you outside when Mike and Amy and I were talking about Hunger Games? I gave Amy the hardback a couple of months ago and dared her to read 10 pages without being sucked in. She got so sucked in that she read the entire series in a weekend (I was receiving profane texts from her because she was supposed to actually be doing other stuff that weekend but couldn't.stop.reading.). So then her teen daughter Maggie read the series. And now the husband Mike is in the middle of Catching Fire and he was cursing me for turning them onto the crack and I laughed so, so hard. What is very funny is that after megan walker turned down the offer of my older Kindle, I gave it to the next best recipient, Amy. And we've kept it registered to me, for now, so that she can read all of the stuff I've already bought. So Mike has stolen her Kindle to read Catching Fire and Amy threw $10 at me at my party because she bought a book (on my account) and we got into a funny argument about her not needing to pay me if it's something I'll read anyway but if she purchases Danielle Steele, she has to pay me $100.
I am sure this makes no sense but it struck me as hilarious at the time. Of course I had three of megan walker's Dark and Stormies in me, so everything was hilarious.
Sox, I am glad your mom is making a grocery run for you. And may the rest of your travels be as stress-free as possible.
Brenda, library for the other books.
Ok I have folded more laundry and have another load in, I think one more to wash today and that will be all the laundry.
Now knitting and football. Come on saints.
Yeah, football is not going so well.
Well, Justified isn't starting 'til February (although tivo is picking up some repeats).
Supernatural starts end of January.
Caprica's final episodes are running on Tuesday. And Detroit 187 (at least I think it's new) - V is back on Tuesday too.
Castle starts tomorrow. And Hawaii 5-0.
Merlin starts on Friday.
White Collar comes back soon too-- on the 18th
Cool.
Why is everything on Tuesdays?
I am kinda stoked with some of my after Christmas shopping. Flannel sheets for me and mac that came in bags that will become reusable Christmas giftbags. Metal tins with trail mix in them, the tins will also become reuable gift wrappers for years to come. Got mac some philosophy gingerbread man bath stuff that he is surprisingly thrilled with. Then some holiday packaged household stuff that I use anyway that was 70% off just because of packaging.
Sox, were you outside when Mike and Amy and I were talking about Hunger Games?
I was. This is similar, though I don't think I heard the whole story. Megan makes good dark and stormies, according to DH.
I want my knitting, but I'm pretty sure it's checked.
Wow. I just went to update my payment info so I could get today's Groupon, and discovered that my bank is boycotting the entire state of Illinois because they've had so many card fraud incidents there. Damn.
