I love to read. The first thing I've always done upon moving to a new town is to get a new library card, and when we moved to Livermore six years ago, it was no different. I like to read a wide variety of books, so my usual trip to the library involves wandering the aisles of bookshelves and picking up any book that looks interesting and catches my eye. I come home with quite a selection, everything from travelogues to classics to mysteries, biographies and romance novels, and usually with more books than I can read during the three-week check-out period.
Fortunately, Amazon developed the perfect gadget for people like me, and Josh gave me a Kindle for Christmas this year. I am in love! I now have thousands upon thousands of books at my fingertips, and don't have to renew or return any of them when I haven't gotten around to reading them just yet. Plus, with my snazzy hot pink cover, I can read in public without flashing Fabio on the cover of a guilty-pleasure read!
So, without further ado, this week's Diamonds go to...
- My Kindle. A thousand books that fit into my purse all at the same time, all while hiding my trashy romance reads from spying eyes. Need I say more?
- New purses. I finally broke down and replaced my battered three-year-old bag with a cute black-and-pink embroidered model so that I could carry my Kindle around all the time. And, yes, you read that right, my purse matches my Kindle.
And now for the Coals...
- My hair. Apparently it's developed a social life of it's own this week, and I'm entirely not included in it. Hello, ponytails.
- My office. The holidays have come and gone, but the mess remains...
Have a great weekend!
