shame on you, you fool me once

1. Grab the book nearest you. Right now.
2. Turn to page 56.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post that sentence along with these instructions in your LiveJournal.
5. Don't dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.

"I take my time"

Is it weird that my line ended up kinda, sorta being in reference to a Hanson song?

I think so.


And if you'd like to know, the line was from Notes from the Country Club by Kim Wozencraft. And on the cover it says:

A harrowing novel of broken promises and deadly threats that drive a battered woman to kill her husband.

Hmmmm. Maybe I should finally read this.

My mom's been getting books in the mail, lucky duck.

She did this kind of chain-mail-book-club thing.

I'm not entirely sure how it works b/c I haven't exactly sat down with her to have it explained. But, like, you send little note cards out telling people about it. Then they send the note cards out and send a book to who sent it initially to you. Then the people your friends sent it to, send you a book. So basically you're getting books from strangers. Or from a-friend-of-a-friend type thing. It seems pretty cool and I absolutely LOVE getting things in the mail.....which never happens unless I order something on line. (I have no clue if I even explained this in a way that people will understand.)

So in the end, I'm thinking about doing this. Problem is, the only people I really know to send it to are family members and my mom already has them all covered. I mean, I really only hang out with three people and to be quite honest, at best, I can only think of one of them that may continue with the chain. But even she might not do it with all the other things on her plate. ie: her 5 yr old, her job, and school. So who knows. I might not do it. I'll probably need my mom to explain it to me in full detail before I choose whether or not to do it. *shrug* I dunno. It could be very cool though.

As for other news: i totally saw REAL FLAMINGOS on Sunday! And to top it off, there was a baby flamingo too! He was gray and fluffy, he looked like he still had down-feathers. But seriously, it was frickin amazing! I'll have to post pictures soon from all my trips on vacation. I had a blast. I think I'm still tired out from everything. But it was definitely worth it. XD   And hopefully we'll be taking a trip to another zoo next year. I could seriously visit all the zoos in all the world and still not get enough!
