Put Me OUT of My Misery

Why am I awake? It is 6:55a.m., and I have been up since 4-ish. I have developed this habit of going to bed late, waking up 4 hours later, and then going back to bed and getting up late. Ugghhh. I feel nauseous. I feel hollow. I am bored.

Have you ever noticed there is nothing to do at 4a.m.? No? I have. I even had to wait until 5:30a.m for hubby to get up, gnash his teeth at me and abandon me for the gym.

Okay, so here's something random about me. I am a technology geek without the skills to follow through. Example: My first mission for this morning was to download digital pictures off memory card and distribute copies to friends via e-mail. Successful? I am not sure, I have to wait and see if said friends received their copies of their pictures. Turns out that I don't know how to send more than 5 pictures at a time through e-mail. I wonder if there is a program that lets me do that, instead of breaking a batch of pictures down into 6 separate e-mails.

Luckily for me, a more successful technology geek is going to be at my disposal for the next several days. Yes, that's right. Ms. AE is coming to town. WOO-HOO!

Plus, I can get her to weigh in on my new drastic haircolor. REDDDDDD! C-Los sort of weighed in, but she gave me the cryptic "it's going to take me a few days to get used to it." Okay C-Los, does a few days mean that you will call me in a few days and tell me what you think? Or does a few days mean literal collections of 24 hours of concentrated time with me and my hair before you weigh in? Are you a young-earther or a old-earther?

I think that was more clever than any person in their wrong mind could expect to come up with at 7:08 in the morning. With that, I bid you adieu.

Books of Booky Past: these are books that I have recently (or not so recently) read, and recommend.

the plain truth: jodi picoult
This book provided a wealth of information about the Amish community. It was wonderful.

the time traveler's wife: audrey niffenegger (sp?)
This book is like the movie Serendipity. Wow! the first time around, still pretty great for consequent readings.

Present Booky Books: do I really need to explain what this is?

Yeah, it's fantasy. So is Edward Cullen.
