Oh, yeah.

My mother has started in the past six months or so to read for fun, so it's been a lot of "The DaVinci Code" and James Patterson and stuff like that all over the house when I go up there.

Tonight when I went up there she said she was ordering Escape by Carolyn Jessop and offered to let me read it when she was done. Awesome. Finally, she's reading something I want to read. (And vice versa ... I'd offer her some of my books but they're mostly romance novels, sci-fi and fantasy, and disasters in American history, all of which I'm pretty sure she'd turn down.)

I'm going to have to see about picking up a used copy of Under The Banner Of Heaven, too, while I'm at it. Hmm.

Oh, and do you have any idea how hard it was to choose which icon of mine was the least tasteless one to use with this post? I was debating between the "nice innocent virgin who hasn't even gotten laid" icon, the "definitely not a good enough virgin" icon, or the "Jesus doesn't love you, he's just trying to get you into bed" icon, before I just threw my hands up in the air and went with a drinkin' one. Even though I'm not drunk. I should probably do something about that.

Under The Banner Of Heaven nearly gave me nightmares.

...I'm realizing now that that's kind of a dumb thing to say. I blame the beer.

What is the deal with that Da Vinci Code book?

I could only get through the first few paragraphs before I had to put the book down and quickly back away.
