Really Really Thursday

Firstly, Im writing on my phone. Painstakingly thumb typing to get my thoughts out. It took me an hour to write this post. Looks run together? My stoopid app shows me there are 3 spaces between paragraphs and 2 spaces behind ever period. I can't wait to get my new computer.   Now onto the crazy.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
So my summer started out slow. Business was quiet ( book your passion party today or order online www.passionboost.yourpassionconsultant.com), the weather was warm, my kids were happy school was letting out and I was...well, working at my day job.
I was told about this crazy book. Fifty Shades of Grey by E.L. James. I thought about the hype...saw the SNL skit (hi freakin larious btw) and decided I would borrow it from a friend.  Lo and behold women at my parties were asking how to do some of the stuff in the book... Guess its time to read it. I mean, I can answer about 90% of questions thrown at me in a heartbeat, but I had nothing since I didn't know the story. I hadn't bought a book in AGES (its true...being a mom to two little kids my reading included toilet training guides for autistic children and Dr. Seuss) It was time to spoil myself.
I found the book interesting. I mean, I freakin devoured this book! It was a great study manual for my business. I've since loaned the series to my cousin and haven't seen it in 2 months...If you are reading this Steph...answer my texts I want my books, dammit!
Following the great Fiftyshadesofseclusion 2012, I was hungry....Not for asparagus stalks or Spanish Potatoes, but for books.
I turned to my favorite ladies from the bump (BTB Holla!!!!), and was enlightened with a plethora of naughty!
Thoughtless and Effortless by SC Stephens were fantastic reads. My Kellan Kyle is played by Jared Leto....mmmm Jared Leto, and a guitar, and piercing eyes...and abandoned coffe huts *shiver*
I found a much tweeted book on Twitter ( where did you think I would get tweets???) The Unidentified Redhead by Alice Clayton. Now Alice is Batsht crazy! Seriously! I know, she puts up with me on twitter. Why?I dunno...
If you havent read this series yet GET. ON. IT! You will be reliving your NKOTB obsession (stop denying...), ducking seagulls and falling in love with Sweet Nuts and Nuts Girl. Closet floors will begin to look appealing and solo showers will leave you falling off balance. I recommended it to my bump girls and we all agree, this is a good...no no wait...GREAT read!
I then found another much tweeted about book...by an even more crazy, rick astley dancin, blog pressuring writer Michelle Leighton. (she is the reason for this crazy that is my blog).   She wrote The Wild Ones! Horses, ranch hands, wet tshirts....*fans self* Word has it she has another book coming out on Sunday. Im excited! eeeeeeee *running in circles*
Shortly thereafter, I entered to recieve a copy of POUGHKEEPSIE by Debra Anastasia. HOLY MOTHER OF ALL THINGS PAPER!!! Romance where you least expect it, violence, church...I COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN! One person said she doesn't trust a book with so many vowels...she's crazy...completely over the moon BATSHIT CRAZY...she's the one who wrote the book (and she gives cool swag too).
Im tired. I dont know how these amazing ladies do it. Writing is not easy and yet its easy to get carried away and Im trying to end this prior to going off on a Donnie Wahlberg tangent... Until tomorrow...Stay wit me baby...oh cripes *smh*
