The night before last my Kindle needed charging and so did my iPad (which has a Kindle application -- and that App is pretty awesome). So I actually pulled out a favorite BOOK (paperback, mind you) and read myself to sleep. The book is Father Andrew M.

Accomplished today?

Zero.

Well, actually, that's not 100% true! We finished the Women's Murder Club: Little Black Lies HOG (hidden object game)! It was LOADS of fun, by the way! All the Women's Murder Club games are fun -- so we may get another one to do, too ( Read more... )
