Thursday Thirteen ~ Books I Can't Believe I Haven't Read Yet!!

Here are 13 books that I am shocked to say I haven't read. I always say I am going to, but just haven't. Most of these I just love the movie version, which is probably why I haven't read the book yet. Then there are those that seems like I should have read in high school, but we read other books instead. One day I will finally read these.

1. Anne of Green Gables
2. Gone with the Wind
3. Little Women
4. Dune
5. The Color Purple
6. Great Expectations
7. The Grapes or Wrath
8. Bram Stoker's Dracula
9. Watership Down
10. Catcher in the Rye
11. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
12. The Great Gatsby
13. A Christmas Carol

Thursday Thirteen

With Valentine's Day around the corner I thought this would be a fun list to make.

Thirteen ways you know you are an "old" married couple:

1. An hour to wait for a table for dinner is just not worth your time anymore.

2. $4.50 for a card!

3. You have given/received the same card more than once.

4. You celebrate Valentine's Day one week early or one week late. (refer to #1)

5. You say "We celebrate Valentine's Day every day"

6. Sexy lingere...LOL....You don't have enough time to take all your clothes off, much less put anything else on.

7. If you do go out you think how can all these "kids" afford this restaurant.

8. Your husband rations your candy (the candy he gave you).

9. You are excited that you get to see a movie (probably rated R) in a theatre.

10. The term "Let's just skip dinner" doesn't mean what it use to (refer to #1).

11. Now that you can afford those romantic get aways, you don't have the time or a sitter to take them.

12. You think that palying Whirly Ball sounds like a good Valentine's Day date.

13. The best Valentine's gift is for you to have your kiddos spend the night away from home, so you can SLEEP all night long and stay in bed all the next morning, SLEEPING.
