Twilight

OK-I finally gave in and decided to give these books a try.  I just really could not give in and be like everyone else before.  But, Alicia, a girl in my ward, finally convinced me to give it a try.  I read the first one in about 5 days, and now I am about 200 pages into "New Moon".  Also, I made a stupid mistake of scheduling the kids' dentist and doctor appointments for the same day.  Last Friday, we did them for both of them.  Since we only have one car, I have to plan for days to keep the car.  That means getting the kids up early and dropping Ry off at work and then I did not stop the rest of the day, which meant no reading my Twilight book.  I will never schedule that many appointments in one day ever again.  To make matters worse, Ryan forgot his cell phone, so when we were at his work and realized it, I gave him mine for the day, and decided I would use his that was still at home.  However, I forgot how Ashton chews on Ryan's phone sometimes (he is teething, and we always take it away) but I did not get it soon enough.  He soaked the thing with saliva.  So, on my day of errands, I did not have a working phone.  I would have to drive around looking for pay phones, they are not on every corner like they used to be, before cell phones.  Then I had to buy stuff to get enough change.  My phone calls cost me $1 in quarters only since we still have ID area codes and it was a long distance call.  We do not have a home phone, just 2 cell phones, so I had to keep on calling Ryan to schedule pick up times, and the such.  Talk about annoying.  I realize now how dependant I am on my cell phone.  What a convenience!  Anyways, about the book, I am excited to finish the series in time for the 4th and to see the movie later this Summer.  They are easy reads, if anyone wants to give them a try!
