BFFs

Two of my best friends drove me over to the vet's office today to pick up my Monkey-cat. (She's doing ok, a bit sore, but ok so far). The vet called me back for a consult, and I could hear them giggling away from all the way down the hall behind closed doors as I waited. How interesting that no matter how much time passes, but I can totally recognize those two distinct laughs by sound alone. Was a good day ladies, thank you!

Thanksgiving

So, what's your favorite food of Thanksgiving? The bird, the 'taters, pies, etc?

I just can't decide, but I know I'm looking forward to turkey, devilled eggs, and yummy, yummy mashed potatoes. I am however trying to see if anyone else serves something unusual, so let me know!

Thinking

Reading about several wars right now, and I just thought - you can't really win a war. You can beat someone at a war, but no matter what you can't really win when you lose so much.

Overwhelmed with Choices (Books)

Tonight was book club. That scary meeting. You know, the yearly event where you pick next year's books? Where you sit and wonder if you'll get to read your picks this year, or if maybe you're going to adore someone else's suggestions more than your own..... that was tonight. We have a day or two to sit down and think about what we want to vote for , but here's what I suggested:

Stitches: A Memoir by David Small

The Forever War by Dexter Filkins

Strength in What Remains by Tracy Kidder

A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again: Essays and Arguments by David Foster Wallace

So, what do you think? I'll get to all of them eventually either way, and there were some very intriguing choices on other lists. Can't wait to find out!
