I'm in Technological Ecstasy!

I got it today, I got it today, Aaayyyeeee-I-I got it today!

The new Amazon Kindle is what I got. Have you SEEN this thing!? It's awesome, especially if you are an insatiable reader like I am. I hate being caught without a book but it's also a pain to lug around forty a couple of books on vacation or even a long car trip. so my mom showed me this one day and I've been lusting over it ever since.



I've totally fallen in LOVE with this thing!

It's only the size of an Avon booklet and is so light. I'm getting ready to go nuts and start downloading books, best-selling books that I can buy cheap! Woot!

On day 3 of this darn headache but I'm just gonna ignore it for now. I'm kinda leaning toward the chiropractor and never heard that milk could cause 'em! That just ain't right! I love my 1% milk!

Ya'll go check out this thing. Don't even tell me, "But Shaaawwwn, I don't even have time to wipe my own butt, how am I going to find time to read?" Just do what I do, let the masses fend for themselves. Let the dishes pile up, let the laundry tower and stink. You won't mind because you will be in another world...a world that YOU chose and has taken you away!



So pour a glass of wine and take an extra sip for me. I'm playing at work tonight.

(As always, thanks to Rick Green for his doodles!)

You sound very happy. Maybe it is something I can look into this summer. To many school books right now and I already ignore the family so I am on the right track!

Can you make the print extra large on those puppies? I am getting blinder by the day! Your headache is worrisome. And, um, can't you ask someone at work??? Helllooo? Headaches are serious. Pay attention to it.

Sounds like a great new toy to play with during a staff meeting to meet at work!!!

Mental P: Absolutely, it has six different font sizes so that someone really blind can still read AND is has audio so it can just read to ya if you want.

I'm telling ya, I'm in love.

Now I know what to get Mr. Snoots for Father's Day (while buying one for me at the same time, lol).

Thanks Chicka!

Hope the head gets better. I'm learning to live with mine! Kinda.

You go girl! Now get to a Dr about that damn headache of yours.

The Girl said...

The headache thing must be in the air, I'm on my third day of a pounder. A lady I work with has that gizmo, I'm not sure I'm ready to give up my paperbacks.

Jen said...

Interesting, I have not seen this little thing. Should I check it out or not?
