Facebook

Friday, February 27, 2009

Facebook is such a strange thing. I've been getting in contact with people I haven't spoken to in years. My husband's best friend in England and I chat all the time on there (I've never actually met him in real life). Some of my cousins are on there, but the suprise family member was my dad. He joined last week! He's 64 and not very social so seeing him on Facebook was a big shock.



He told me he joined because the group he rode horses with as a teenager, California Rangers, was on there and they wanted pictures from him. While he was part of the organization he was Mr California Ranger. So now there are pictures of my teenaged dad on Facebook. So cute!

RYOB Update

Red Dragon by Thomas Harris

My review

rating: 4 of 5 stars
My second book for the RYOB challenge. I won't get to my 20 books if I keep reading at this pace. I really enjoyed it, I don't know why it took me so long. It is a better story then Silence of the Lambs, although I thought that was a great book too. The killer in this is very chilling and yet there is a bit of hope that he will redeem himself.

Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal by Christopher Moore

My review

The third book in my RYOB challenge. Ruth and I met the author at a book signing and he was so funny I had to move this up in my reading list.
