The Wheels Keep Turning

I finally uploaded the pictures off of my camera card! Remember this post? Where I talked about how close my hotel room was to the airport runways... yeah this is a view from the room.
(It may not look too close but guess what? When you have 747's and other large aircraft taking off and landing every 15 seconds...that's pretty loud.)

Now, on to other news. In my post-earth shattering event from yesterday, I've been trying to be non-stop busy. I've read 2 books in 1 day. Let me tell you, if you haven't read Tori Spelling's book sTori Spelling then you need to run, not walk to the nearest book store and buy it. It's HILARIOUS. Before you judge, I saw her in tons of movies and was a faithful fan of 90210 but I never really knew that much about her. One day years after the end of 90210 I saw a preview for a new reality show following none other than...Tori Spelling. I gave it a chance and thought it was interesting and funny. She seemed pretty normal for someone who grew up rolling in cash. Flash forward to Monday...I'm walking around aimlessly waiting to meet up with a friend and I see her book. 
I ended up buying it and currently I'm about half way through it. It's good, real good. Now I understand the feud with her mother. I can't wait to read her 2nd book & her mothers.

Besides my great book find, I got to meet up with my friend. This girl & I have known each other since our 2nd year of college. We were in the same sorority and have been friends ever since. We haven't got to see each other for about 2 years so yesterday was a special treat. 

(and yes I was wearing a Ghost Busters t-shirt)

You are too cute in your Ghostbusters shirt! Love it. I too have been having a little trouble with Blogger. Glad I am not the only one. Have a good day.

I want to know where one even finds a Ghostbusters shirt. It's awesome. I've been wanting to read that book, but couldn't bring myself to do it! Perhaps now in my new found unemployed state...I will pick up a copy.

I have always meant to read Tori's first book but just haven't gotten around to it... Definitely adding it to my mental TBR list :)
Love the Ghostbusters shirt, that's hilarious!!
I'm not entering your giveaway because I have already read both books. I would love for someone new to the series to win! What a great idea to giveaway the first two! I think there are tons of readers out there that have thought about starting the series and just haven't yet.

I may have to check that book out from the library. I had my hesitations since I'm not really a Tori Spelling fan, but I've heard good things.
