Mission Accomplished

Reading
80. Go to the library and select 5 random books I normally wouldn’t read and complete them (0/5)

I'm starting "Dad By Choice" tonight. It's pretty short, so even if it sucks, it should be a brief pain.


Shits & Giggles
91. Read a trashy romance novel all the way through

Finished it. Boy... was I disappointed. I had Larry laughing pretty hard at my book review of it. I complained that there wasn't enough sex in it to make it worth my while.

But yeah, finished it. I have no new love for romance novels.


Very Personal

Picked one up today. It's some kind of medical romance/drama thing concerning the ethics of whether teens should marry if the girlfriend gets pregnant. Random enough, and I already think it's going to suck.

Today I picked up "Savage Thunder." It was the trashiest, cheesiest romance novel I could find on the shelf. It's about a half-Indian guy and a redheaded English duchess.

Because my upcoming trip to Nashville will consist of a lot of sitting around in the hotel while Larry's in class, I'll need books to read. I'll get my library card and see what books I can find to take with me.

I've been shopping at Goodwill for a trashy romance novel. Apparently, the 20 or so middle-aged housewives that are always lurking near the books have beat me to them all. O_o
