I think this will be the first year I’m not getting myself anything special. I’ve been pining for chaise for some time thus my drooling upthread but I’m going to put it off for a few more months. I don’t think there’s anything else I really want.

Awwww c'mon . . . not even a lil sumthin, sumthin???

SCNDLS said:

I can't think of anything.

JackieBlue said:

You're not trying

The Sony Reader, maybe.

Honey said:

I don't get what that is exactly. Is it like an Ipod for books and you listen to them?

SCNDLS said:

That would be even better! I love audiobooks. But, no, you download the books to read.

Nothing. Jealous?

Honey said:

What?! So you read 'em on a lil screen???

SCNDLS said:

It's kinda cool. I'll find a pic!

Honey said:

Okay, but it would be better with audiobooks. Are the books cheaper than getting a hardcopy?

Honey said:

I want one:

SCNDLS said:

I would love it as a "See & Say Reader", lol. Of course, that would cost more than a hard copy.

I think this way it would be the same or cost less.

I think.

Honey said:

We use Kindle on iphone. Books on kindle cost less than hardcopies.

Honey said:

If I can get my ass to finish the proofreading, it'll be done.

SCNDLS said:

I don't know how far along it is but...

Read-to-Me: With the experimental Text-to-Speech feature, Kindle can read newspapers, magazines, blogs, and books out loud to you, unless the book's rights holder made the feature unavailable

I'm guessing eventually it will be something standard.

There's nothing I really want this year. I'm trying to save to get the new Camaro in the Spring.




I passed 2 today on the highway (actually, one flew past me ) and my '95 'Maro felt so inadequate!

I always shop for myself, and wrap it for under the tree. This year I have also been buying stocking stuffers for myself because my husband is too slack. Otherwise, my kids see the other three are full and they think I must have been a bad girl. My husband will get a couple things that I dont know about, but mostly I prefer to pick my own. (I also dont tell him what "he" got me so hes surprised when I open it )
