The Sunday Salon: Wrapping Up the Week

First of all, Happy Mother's Day to all the moms and potential moms! I hope you all have a wonderful day. For me, it means we spend the evening  going "home" to visit both mothers in our lives. And I think my grandma might even be at my mom's house too, so that would be cool. It also means I get a phone call from my son who has been gone on a church mission now for one year! Wahoo! Very excited to talk to him, but a little nervous too. Funny how that happens. He's been speaking Spanish (in Ohio of all places), so I know we will get a kick out of his new Spanish accent. And I can't wait to hear his goofy laugh.

Anyway, I just had to say, guess what happened this last week?! No, I'm not talking about the bookish evening out, or about the post I had a blast writing, or about the fact that I bagged a book and started a much buzzed about one, or even that we are getting lots of suggestions for  the latest bookword!

No, what I'm talking about is that four posts ago I passed my 1000 post mark! What is up with that!? That's a little bit scary, I'm thinking, that I can come up with that much to say, mostly about books ( a little music, a little movies, a little Josh Groban here and there!)  and yet still feel like I have so much more to say too. Weird.

Did I say I started The Passage? Yes, last night I did. And ho-boy, it's already creeping me out a bit. I knew it would. It has elements of several other creepy books about it that I can't quite put a finger on yet. But I'll let you know when I do.

Hopefully, sometime this evening I'll be able to watch the Amazing Race finale and cheer on those cowboys. Dang, they better win! Ah, but they are the coolest ever.

Okay. So I think that's all I wanted to ramble on about today. Have a wonderful day moms and everyone else!

(Just a nice tiger we took a picture of at the San Diego Zoo last month!

I liked it a lot, so I'm posting it just for the fun of it!)
