Friday the 13th

[Connie]

Did anyone have bad luck today? I dented my forehead with the door of my mini-van, but it is Mark's fault, he called my name just as I was opening the door. Hopefully the bruise heals in two weeks! If not, I'll have a new hairstyle, complete with bangs!

I didn't even realize it until you pointed it out, Connie. Good thing the day's almost over

[Robin]

Couldn't forget the big day here. Marked as the release date of the new (and final) Lemony Snicket book. Arden's been anticipating for weeks.... no other misfortunes though.

[Connie]

My 6-8th graders are really not into The Unfortunate Events books but they are going nuts over The Lightening Thief!

[Robin]

She just finished The Lightning Thief yesterday. Said it was really, really good. ( big smiley added at her request!)

[Connie]

Now she needs to read the sequel, Sea of Monsters. (and yes everyone, I am aware that I spelled lightning wrong, oops!)

[Robin]

She showed it to me today, but the one she started is Inkheart. I wish I had as much time to read!

[Connie]

Inkheart is great! It is going to be a movie, probably next summer. I wish I had more time to read. Sometimes I am amazed at how much time I spend surrounded by books and how much time I don't spend reading! One time I had a quiet minute and I sat down to read Texas Monthly. Just as I opened to a page with Anna Nicole Smith wearing pasties...my principal walked into the library!
