Scrooge

It's been a few years since I've gotten in the holiday mood and I've definately been a Scrooge these last few years. Last year I gave up the Christmas tree and lit a menorah instead (I'm not sure why). This year I did neither. Although, unlike the last few years, I actually managed to get my parents gifts. I should have spent the money on my husband, but it's okay. We had our now traditional Christmas day spaghetti and then I went in to work. I wish that we could travel home for Christmas, but there's just too many issues with flying this time of year. My husband misses the big meals and the relatives and I want him to be happy. Maybe we'll make it next year.
As for being Scrooge, I think it'll take me having a child to get over that so I have a few more years to be grouchy.

A Gift

I got a Kindle!!! I love to read from regular books. There's just something about not using electronics and wondering if your batteries will die before you get to plug it in again. However, I frequently end up finishing a book while I'm out running around and I don't have another one available to me for a few hours. During this time I go through withdrawals. I wish I were joking, but I'm that addicted to reading at the moment. My hands start shaking and I'm mentally very freaked out. Therefore, I thought it would be a good idea for me to get a Kindle. I can instantly download a book if I happen to finish one. Plus, I can carry multiple books around with me. I'll still use the library and buy books from my favorite authors, but I should have fun with the kindle too.

What should I read first?
