Oh, forget it! I’m going to have nightmares tonight. Thanks a lot, Poncho!

I hadn’t heard of anyone having any trouble with that scene until today.

This one, on the other hand still keeps me away from sports-clubs’ showers.

Thanks, Jen! Hope your week turns out better than you think. At any rate, I have a feeling it’s going to fly by. Seems like this whole year is.

I already have several such “nightstands” and “end tables” and “coffee tables” around the place. The other day I bumped into one and it came crashing down. I think I need more stable—or maybe just actual—furniture.

Jen – Good luck breaking on through the next week! Hopefully, it’ll go smoother than you anticipate!

PCN – You could always stack the books in equal piles next to one another then cover with a cloth and Voila!, you have a nightstand! (Err, just remember to put something waterproof between the books and the cover.) Have a great visit with your parents!!!

My parents are coming to stay with me this week. I’m really excited to see them but have a lot of tidying and cleaning up to make my place guest-ready. I’ve been putting stacks of books in the guest bedroom for lack of a better place. I now have to find somewhere else to put them so my parents can actually have some space in there!

CHRISTINE!!

Good to see you again! I tend to stay inside whenever it gets too hot OR cold. I rarely get cabin fever, though, because I can hunker down for days if I have enough food and books to read.

I scare the public all the time when the weather gets extreme. Once when I was in NYC and it was their coldest day in 85 years, I wore a huge down parka borrowed from a friend that made me look, in my husband’s words, “like a giant Michelin Man about to attack Tokyo.”

I’m stressing about my electric bill too. I think I’ve had my air on more this summer already than the whole of last summer…and we haven’t even hit August yet! Yee gads! I’m trying to keep the air as low as I can without melting my dogs. They handle the heat a lot worse than I. I’m a freeze baby. I can tolerate pretty hot. The humidity is the killer!

Tess Gerritsen’s new book ICE COLD might fit into your temp-dropping group, though.

I’m trying to think of a book cover that is well representative of chaos. My house is in chaos, my work is in chaos. I’ll be so glad for this coming week to be over…I already know I’ll be ridiculously busy at work. Not happy about this. I don’t like to wish my life away, but I’m praying this week goes by quickly!
