DR edisaurus - You went to Bouchon?!?!? :) :) :) :)

Yes, it is my friend Susan's favorite restaurant. But I was so full from the salad I had with bk that I couldn't eat anything, just had a beer and stole a french fry from Jacques. Everything looked yummy, tho!

From John G:
Quote
Kingsolver used to be one of my favorite writers. But her recent novels, like "Prodigal Summer" and "Poisonwood Bible," were so pedantic that they were laughable in spots. But her "Animal, Vegetable, Miracle" marked a return to form and "Lacuna" has some powerful moments. But if you don't want to read something, well, you just don't want to read it. It's one of the reasons I dropped out of my book club. One vapid member, who only found her opinions from reading reviews, kept picking the most dreadful books.

Fortunately just because I don't want to read something doesn't always mean I don't end up enjoying the book.  Often I'm grateful for having read it.  I'm not a big fan of Kingsolver to begin with, not that I necessarily dislike her.

Since the person hosting picks the book we have a good variety from month to month & the will of one person isn't pressed on the rest of the group.

Oh...

How tired am I? Well... Was I?...

I put my ice cream back in the fridge last night instead of the freezer... :-\

Soupy ice cream can still taste good.

It poured rain through the night - really hard so it was even and not weird-sounding on the monstrosity - I only got up once during the night because it was really coming down.  Of course, now the sun is out, hence LA.

Well, dear readers, I am so tired – how tired are you – I am so tired that I fell out of bed and broke my pyjamas. Oops, wrong joke.

I would love to know the actual joke.  I think.

THE BORDERS IN BOCA RATON IS CLOSING DOWN.

I wonder how many other stores are going that way?

Five years from now, with the possible exception of used or specialty book stores, all brick/mortar book stores will be gone.

That's the power of Amazon.

We are having our first snow flurry of the season.  And "flurry" would be stretching it.

I've used audio files in Power Point. Granted, it's not simply intuitive but I've used them.

I am glad it's Free-For-All-Day because I feel very free today.  For all.


At least I can afford free.

We went e-book shopping today as a possible Christmas gift to me.

I thought I would like it but after trying it out

I HATE THE NOOK

It is absolutely non-user friendly and it's a huge pain in the butt to use. I've crossed it off my list. I'm still trying to find a Kindle that works at the Best Buy. The store on 23rd Street had two different models but they cannot get them to work and after screwing around with the Nook I don't want to buy one unless I can play with it and see how it works.

I do like the Sony eReader. I don't much care for the Literati or the Pandigital. The Kobo is OK but feels cheap.

We shall see.

Sunday afternoon greetings!

How tired am I?  Well, when my alarm went off at 5:20 this morning, I'd already been up and started the coffee so that it was ready for me when my 10-minute snooze was over.  We arrived home from Lima about half an hour ago after I drove the rented Kia Sorento all the way.  It's the biggest vehicle I've ever driven.

Do I take a walk or a nap before Improv-Ice comes on in an hour?

Shortly after Craig made the decision to stay put & returned from the market chains were no longer required.  A part of him thinks he should have gone for it.  Hopefully he can come home tomorrow. It still doesn't look good.

Former DR David and I both love our Kindles.  I know that Ginny likes her Kindle, but I won't assign her rating to it.
