Day: November 16, 2008

.
Why am I awake and blogging at four am? Good question. My daughter is sick and I had to get up at three to check on her. Now I can\’t get back to sleep (husband snores pretty loud). So here we are. Well, KittyCat from Right Reads tagged me a few days ago for this alphabet meme I\’ve seen floating around forever. I was surprised how easy it was to come up with these titles! For every book listed here I easily thought of a few more, so maybe I\’ll do a second alphabet meme in the future. These are mostly old favorites (except for maybe Up the Down Staircase. It was good, but I wouldn\’t really call it a favorite. I couldn\’t think of another U title, though).
