In the middle of summer?  Awesome!  I'm trying to read one.  Not that it isn't good, by one of my favorite authors, its just that it is hard to sit and read this time of year.

It was sent to me for my birthday.



It was somewhat informative but full of a lot of ******** as well. The author pretends to be writing an autobiography but then inserts his own feelings as facts. Otherwise, a good read I guess.

So do you do anything else?  Housework?  Lawn work?  Gardening?  Etc.?

Yeah, I had a job the entire first half of June. What's that housework you speak of?  Grin

Spider plants, cactus, etc. There's lots of house plants that will clear the air instead of make more pollen.  Roll Eyes

Cacti can be entertaining if you sneak them in your guests' seats during dinner parties.

Well for people with FRIENDS, it's the one's that you invite over to partake in your hospitality. I could see why you have trouble with that.

oh, and it should be noted that Sci-Fi (no, NOT SyFy you stupid stupid channel) books are my thing, mostly involving time travel of some kind.  I'm a major geek for those things...

CHRIST! I used to read a series of romance novels involving Highlanders, faeries, and time travel. I tried to sell what I had in a garage sale this weekend but there were no takers. Let me know if you want the name of the author. lol

I'm reading the Lost Symbol. Too bad I'm having trouble concentrating lately. I am enjoying it but it's probably going to take me 6 months at this rate.

Ooooh, I read the Time Traveler's Wife....it was really good!  Better than the movie I hear, which is usually the case.
