At least I was able to catch you on Facebook. ;)<br /><br />Anyway, I'm glad you liked Catching Fire. I LOVED it. At this point, I'm not sure if I'm Team Gale or Team Peeta. I don't know Gale well enough to make a decision. Too bad, the two characters can't be combined into one person because that would be the perfect man!<br /><br />Also, you do write as well as Suzanne Collins. You need to give yourself more credit. I think you're awesome!Jenni Elysehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08403700912436098391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6131409629757210790.post-61120276442672267222009-09-21T06:31:46.365-07:002009-09-21T06:31:46.365-07:00Debbie- lol!

The first time I got a massage my eyes even started to water so i got a bit of mascara on the face pad and since my nose was running was sniffling like crazy. When I was done that gal asked if I had been crying.

I wanted to de-lurk last week and answer those questions - especially #1. I think Lucille Ball should portry me in a film. Ask your mom about the soup delivered to a neighbor in need and falling out the back of my car all over the street! No good deed goes unpunished.

Your post made me laugh, loved it. <br /><br />And I think you mean that the UPSIDE of reading such a good book is knowing that someday you'll be publishing something just as good, if not better.

See my hubby had said something like "If I had a nickle for every time I wanted a raisin, I'd be rich!" or something like that. And I thought "It makes no sense to be getting a nickel when you want a raisin." So I said "If I had a raisin every time I wanted a raisin...I wouldn't have very many raisins."Alysa Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03705870547401762370noreply@blogger.com
