Reading the 4th Twilight book. It's totally ridiculous. Why wasn't Bella on birth control? He's almost too scared to have sex with his wife because he thinks he's going to kill her, but he never stops to think, hmm, what if I impregnate her with my vampire spawn which then proceeds to eat her from the inside out? No? Come on, Stephenie Meyer.

We're going on a church retreat this weekend. Our synod (that's the local branch of our denomination) is having their annual get together, and we are going as the non-minister representatives from our church. M is looking forward to meeting church leaders, talking church history and politics, and getting his hands on piles of books and papers. Me? I just want to swim in the pool and eat room service while watching cable TV. I'm sure the other stuff will be lovely, too, but the trip will be a serious let down if I don't get my pool, room service and cable time. What's the point of staying in a hotel if you don't get those things? You might as well just sleep on the street.
