It's my B-day and I'll cry if I want to--but I don't want to because: I AM STILL HERE! YEAAH!
And I have money. Well, a gift certificate from Amazon, but still...I want some suggestions from you all. Help me spend this windfall and we can all share in the experience. I don't mean you can borrow my precious books, just enjoy them vicariously.

Confined to my special air bed summer before last after a muscle graft on my ass, I read everything in the house and this is a house full of books. I then turned to the internet and the insidious lure of online shopping. Oh, oh, she's loose with a credit card. How much can she spend? She won't last much longer. The odds are against her. Well, I am still spending. Hah!

I posted on my other groups: the Literary Fiction Lovers at Yahoo and their CC Survivors thing. Our Monica is over there, too. She is practically running the place. Let's hear it for Monica--a true Amazon!

Ahoy, Asp -

two suggestions:

A Prayer for Owen Meany and London.

London is a big'un - it tooke me an entire six week deployment to finish.

If you tenr toward non-fiction, may I suggest Bowditch's "The American Practical Navigator" - not much on plot, but the trigonometric algorithms for determining angle of incidence for circles of equal altitude when Betelgeuse is at its nadir are fascinating. (yawn)

Then of course there's always the Sponge Bob Square Pants Anthology.

Happy Burfday
