You've got to be kidding me, right? There's enough of this drivel to necessitate three entire sections at Barnes & Noble? (There is another one right behind me that you can't see). It makes me sad. I was talking with Ash and Becki about this (check out both of their blogs as well. I follow them) and I get that it's a fad. But I'm much more okay with reading Goosebumps books than I am with kids reading this. I don't know why all this vampire junk stirs up such emotion in me, but ugh. I fear for children. Please, if you're a teenage girl, and you're reading this, and need something to replace these books, let me know and you can borrow some Encyclopedia Brown or Choose Your Own Adventure books.
And, on a sidenote: I take all these pictures on my phone, and email them to myself to upload here. So far, each of the pictures has had a file size of more than 1MB. The picture of my first meal of 2011 was 1.3MB. Those plastic, non-floppy, floppy disks (the 3.5" version) could only hold a maximum of 1.44 MB. That disk could barely hold that one picture. A dorky sentiment, perhaps, but how cool is that? That my phone can hold over 1000 times what was the standard mobility option for memory 12 years ago.
Oh well. Just stuff I think about.
You're such an interesting person.
