I have had a few pets. The pet that I have found is the best is a dog. I think it is very true that a dog is a man's best friend. Especially when you raise them with alot of love and care and teach them how to love and care. They...

celestemichelle I love dogs, but since I live in an apartment I have a cat now. He's about a year old now and I love him. He cuddles with me for just a little bit in the evenings. Likes to play some, and the rest of the time just does silly things that make me laugh. I've...

Do you ever find it eerie or weird watching a film and you know that the main actors or actresses or both in some cases are actually dead? Or do you not even think about it when watching an old film, or even a film where an...

celestemichelle It doesn't bother me in old movies, or if it was an older actor. What really gets me is when actors die during the filming, or before the release, like Heath Ledger or Brandon Lee (from The Crow). Then I get kind of sad seeing their movies. I also get sad when...

celestemichelle I know I'm being noisy, but I'm a little confused. Why would he need a passport for flying but not driving? And I hope he gets on the ball about that. I know how annoying the uncertainty is.

celestemichelle My husband will get home from deployment this month. I don't have an exact date yet, but I know it's before October. He's been gone since the end of May.

celestemichelle Sometimes I buy new books from Amazon, but I almost never buy their used books, unless it's a really good deal on an expensive book, since the shipping cost brings up the price to almost what a paperback costs new.

celestemichelle There's been a few times that I bought a book at a used bookstore after I checked it out from the library, and just loved it.

Over the past few years I've noticed how sandals and flip flops got popular, especial with the younger crowd (I would say late teens early 20's). Now since the weather has gotten warmer I'm seeing quite a few people in that age...

celestemichelle I'm always barefoot at home or in my yard, or when I go to check the mail. I've even done short hikes barefoot before, especially the ones along creeks with a lot of river rocks. I'm just more comfortable without shoes. I'm still not up for walking in stores...

I recently got a used copy of "The Kite Runner". I've heard good things about it, and it was a best seller, but I don't know anyone personally who has read it. Have you read it? What did you think? I'm still finishing another book...

celestemichelle Thanks. I haven't seen the movie yet, I have it on my netflix list, but I'm thinking I'd rather read the book first.

celestemichelle I love checking out used book stores in different towns, it's always surprising what you'll find. We just had a new second-hand shop open near me, but they don't have any books. :(

celestemichelle I miss having a good library. I'm moving to a larger city in a couple months, so I'm hoping that there will be a good library near us. We have two tall shelves of books at home, and a wooden trunk full of them. About 1/4 of them are mine, and the rest are my...

celestemichelle I usually read books very fast, so the library isn't a problem for me, but I got tired of not finding the books I wanted. Even some classics weren't there. I don't usually like audio books, I guess I just like the feel and smell of real books. Occasionally...

celestemichelle My husband likes having his own personal library, though he almost never rereads books. He does loan them out, but always wants them returned. I just like having a book to read and then return, trade, or give away. Most books I know I won't reread so I'd...

celestemichelle I hadn't thought about looking for books at yard sales. That's a good idea, especially because there are a lot of yard sales here in the summer.

celestemichelle In my hometown the library was really good. There were only 2 in the county, so they were both pretty big, but where I live now, there are 5-6 libraries in town, but they're all very small so I get annoyed with the waiting lists, or having to request the books...
