Timetraveler: why didn't you warn me?

Is it two weeks until the next book club?

I don't think I am going to make it...

Some of you may find me at your office tomorrow, on the other line, knocking on your door. I have been sobbing for the last two hundred pages (maybe more). And the Spurs stopped playing long enough for Mike to notice and start cracking up at me. He was kind and offered a hug for comforting.

Wow (that's more for the book than the hug).

I love time travel.


I hope the next book won't turn me into a teary-eyed fool. Then again...

Danni... the hostest with the mostest

Just wanted to reflect on the fun book club meeting last Wednesday!! The scene was perfect... Veronica's lovely patio surrounded by about 100 candles (Danni... was there some type of sale?), a nice breeze and a pitcher of mimosas! We began our discussion and quickly realized the book sucked and it was more fun bashing the author's portrayal of 5 desperate women searching (in almost every page it seemed) for a feeling, some connection with Annie, or just the need to cry and say sappy things. Great job Danni on the yummy snacks and overall great time! We missed our fellow brunettes who could not attend but there's always May!!
