Book Club, Books, Inlaws
Yesterday I ran out for a bit and then met Chris for a date online. After our date I took a shower and washed my hair. Before I knew it I had to head out the door to meet the book club.
The book club meeting went well. A few of the new people couldn't make it but two people I had never met before showed up and seemed really nice and contributed. My friends showed as well. We had a good discussion about The Kite Runner and I am looking forward to April's meeting.
The next 6 books we are choosing from are all so interesting I admit I'm tempted to order all of them from amazon.com and then stare at them longingly until I get the chance to read them with the book club. Chris told me off a couple weeks ago about buying so much from amazon.com so I know I shouldn't order anything except for what I absolutely have to. I do own 2 of the 6 already. I was just so surprised about Chris commenting on my purchases that I'm holding off. It was completely out of the ordinary for him and since then he's been back to his usual self and actually telling me I should treat myself to something. I just don't know.
I watched some TV last night and went to bed at a reasonable time. I was surprised when I laid down to see it wasn't even 11pm yet. It's good that I'm getting to bed at an earlier time. I don't know why but I still feel wore out today.
I am reading a Jane Green novel. I believe it was her first one published. I have to say I don't think I care for it. Probably because my mind is being drawn toward the Twilight series. I really want to get to them. Actually I have this strange desire to re-read the first one even though I read it just a couple weeks ago before I move on to the second. Hmm. I'm all about delayed gratification these days. Believe me.
I finally emailed Chris' sister to see if her daughter had received the little gift I sent. She had and thanked me and seemed very friendly and apologetic that she hadn't gotten back to me earlier. She said they were all at their parent's place for Easter. I still feel a bit strange about not spending a holiday with family. Hopefully I'll be seeing everyone in a couple weeks when I go up to visit for the weekend. Hmm, speaking of weekends, I don't have any plans for mine. How strange.
