How awesome are books?  Who else loves to get a new book (whether it's yours to keep or borrowed)?  Seriously, I can't fathom not being excited about new books.

The Google gets it.
Not too long ago, I told you guys about the opportunity I had to meet David Sandum, artist, author & founder of the Twitter Art Exhibit & hear him speak about his book.  

If you'll recall, I was a bit excited.  Not just to meet David, but to have the Chicken & Stork with me to (hopefully) catch a glimpse of part of the world that I love.  Exposure to art in any form is important for everyone.  (So says me anyway.)

I had pre-ordered my book before then & have been counting the days 'til it's release ever since.  I'm always curious to learn how other people deal with/handle everything, but the subject of depression is one that hits close to home with us, so I have been extra anxious to read this book.

Well, my SIGNED copy of the book came today.  Yippeeeeeee!  (It is actually the fourth author signed book in my hopefully soon to be growing collection of signed books, although the first one was destroyed in the evil fire of '09, so I'm not sure I should count it, but am anyway.)

Yay book!

So, as soon as I finish rereading the book I'm currently rereading (which awesomely is another one of my signed books) I shall start reading David's.  

This has made the end of an otherwise sucky week (read: teenagers sick, mom exhausted) quite lovely.  I am happy to say, that I can put today in the 'Everyday joy' category, because yay!

Okay, I'm gonna go do some reading before dinner, during dinner, after dinner, before bed, when I should be sleeping...yeah, I'm on a reading binge this week.

I hope m'luvs, that you not only have yummy books to read, but also a fabulous, love & fun filled weekend.

Aloha hugs,
-Clare
