Today is Sweeties day here in the states…or here in Michigan anyway, I don’t know if it’s a nationwide holiday or not. For sweeties day, the hubbs got me a new computer chair…and let me tell you…it’s butt heaven!!

Well, I got to the 2nd half of New Moon at work today…still excellent.

I am sitting here with my earbuds in my ears, iPod at the ready to go lay in my room and listen to some more of this book before I go to bed tonight.

I swear, if I had the paper version, I’d be finished by now….well maybe not, but I wouldn’t sleep until I was.

I have 5 1/2 hours left of this audiobook and then it’s on to the next. I know I won’t finish it tonight…but maybe tomorrow and this weekend?? LOL

Then you know what will happen, I’ll be done with the books and be mad because I miss the story and be waiting patiently for the next one to come out. Just like with Harry Potter…each book left me feeling empty with no closure and longing for the next book to continue the story.

*sigh* I can’t help but want to rush though it…but I know the faster I listen, the sooner it will be over. I guess I could listen to them all over again…ask me how many times I’ve listened to Harry Potter books on audio. LOL A few of them I never actually “read”.

Ok…off to medicate the pup and then back to Jacob and Bella…oh and this mysterious voice of Edward. I wish he’d show his face in this book again already!!!

This may contain some spoilers, so if you haven’t read the 2nd book in the Twilight series…don’t read on.

I finished Twilight today…it was great. Of course I was right into the 2nd book, New Moon, as soon as I was done. I am not sure how far I got into the book (I am listening, mind you) but I know if I was reading I wouldn’t have put it down till I was done.

Something was happening today while I was listening to the book…*spoiler alert*…when Edward was saying goodbye to Bella, I was devastated. I was this close to tears from that point on…omg when Bella was in the woods…I almost had to leave my desk because I just needed to go to the bathroom to cry. I didn’t want to leave my iPod and stop listening to do so though!! LOL

To me, this is silly and crazy. I am not generally emotional when reading/listening. Sure, I read Marley and Me and cried at the end…and I’ve listened to other books and cried…and omg when Dumbledore died…forget it!! I was completely bawling then!!!

But I never thought this would effect me quite like it has. I said though, that I get into books when I listen to too many all at once with the same characters/story line. I mean even now if I really sit here and think about everything….I still get kind of weepy. How pathetic is that??

I have no clue how I’ll get through tomorrow…omg and the weekend…without listening??? I may have to sneak a few hours in this weekend.

I’ll try to be strong for tomorrow’s listening.

Well I am almost finished with listening to Twilight. I have about an hour left in it…and then I move on to the next one! I am so glad that I got that book. It’s really great!

I bought the 2nd and 3rd book in the series and will buy the 4th as well as her adult novel, The Host once I finish the other two books…so probably next week.

One thing is for sure, it definitely helps me keep my butt in my seat at work when I have something good to listen to!

I can’t wait for the movie in November. I sure hope I can find someone willing to go with me!! Maybe I’ll drag the hubbs along. I’ve seen plenty of horror movies that have warped my brain…he owes me a movie! LOL

Only bad thing with listening to many books in a row with the same characters is that after a while I am thinking they’re real. LOL totally crazy, I know…but I kind of get sucked in. I did that with the Stephanie Plum books by Janet Evanovich…I listened to like 5 or 6 of those books one after another and after a while I expected to see Ranger or Joe Morelli on the street LOL Crazy.

Oh well the first book is great and I can’t wait to get more into the series.

Other random stuffs….

I have a very hurty cold sore on my lip. I hate it when I get those!!! First they are all puffy and then when the top falls off they get really hurty for a few days. Dumb herpe!!!! And my dh keeps making fun of me too!! *pout!* I cannot wait for this dumb thing to be gone!!

The fall colors around here are beautiful!! i really want to take the new camera out for a spin and take some pictures of the trees around. There’s this HUGE cemetary by work that has some of the most lovely trees in it! I wish it wasn’t so far away from the house or I’d go there and take the camera. maybe Friday I’ll take it to work with me. I need a smaller bag for it so it’s more portable. Right now I have this HUGE bag. I’ll have to check out amazon or something for a new bag.

GH is on in a few…I am excited for the halloween show! I can actually stay up and watch it this year. I wasn’t as into the show last year so I didn’t really care, but I’m all in this year.

I finally ordered Twilight by Stephanie Meyer on audio. I mainly wanted to see what all the hype is about I guess. I’m about 4 chapters in and it’s really pretty good. I’m glad I made the purchase. I’ll have to see the movie when it comes out in November if I like the book and will definitely be getting the rest of them on audio.


I find it really interesting that the author is Mormon and she’s writing about Vampires and everything. Kind of weird…but in a cool way. Even Christians can find that stuff interesting without falling into some dark whatever.

I don’t have much to say besides that…and I have some HUGE herpe on my lip!! I HATE cold sores!! YUCK!

Of course I also didn’t have anything to put on it, so I went out and had to buy a cold sore arsenol. Hopefully it won’t last too long. It’s huge and hurty though.
