Exhuastion Induced Stupidity Pays Off

Sometimes I do really stupid things when I'm tired. Ridiculously stupid. But the stupidity payed off recently. The fabulous Sommer Marsden was having a blog competition about exhaustion induced stupidity and thanks to the draw I won a copy of I is for Indecent! The book came in the mail yesterday and now I have a lovely new anthology to read - thanks Sommer!!!

What did I do? Well, when my second son was around seven or eight months old and still waking up every two hours every night I was constantly exhausted. In the shower one morning, instead of working conditioner through my hair with a pick, I used my razor instead. After I ended up with a hand full of hair, I woke up really quick and was forced to wear strategically placed barrettes for quite a while. Sad, but true. Oh well - it grew back and now I have a nifty new book. Yay me.




Besides I is for Indecent, I'm also reading The Light-Bearers Daughter by O.R. Melling - an excellent YA book and the third in The Chronicles of Faerie. I love this series.




So what's everybody else reading? Got anything you'd recommend?
