Entertain Me

Yesterday I was looking at my reading list and thinking, "Wow, I've read 17 books this year! That seems like so many!" Really, it's not. It's not even half of what I had planned to read this year. But it's probably more than I read in all 4 years of college combined (not counting books for classes). So it feels like something to me. :)

Instead of going to bed Saturday night, I stayed up and finished reading the last half of Joy in the Morning. It was such a good book, I wish it had never ended. It reminded me a lot of the J.D. Salinger books I loved so much in high school. Not in subject matter, really, but in tone. And the characters. I miss the Glass family...I should re-read his books sometime. I'm not sure exactly where they are, though.

Yesterday I bought the original Nancy Drew movies on DVD. There are 4 (it was a set), but I've only watched one so far. Well, I've seen most of one of the others, but that was on TV. They're really good! And Bonita Granville makes me laugh.

I really want to go to Starbucks and get a peppermint white mocha frappuccino, but I'm debating whether or not to also go to Dillons while I'm out. I can't wait to get my new debit card because writing checks is irritating.
