Best Day of My Life

1) This song begins by mentioning clouds. Do you see clouds in the sky this fine Saturday? I do not

2) Lead singer Zac Barnett sings that, "Everything is looking up." What are you looking forward to today? I am looking forward to hanging out now that I've completed my errands

3) 2016 is not yet half over, but what's been your best day so far this year? I'd have to say Tuesday this week was a good day--especially because I got almost everything I wanted from the contract negotiations session that evening

4) The members of the group, American Authors, met in college. When is the last time you heard from a school chum? Do you know them from grammar school, high school or college? most of my long-term friends are high school friends

5) One of the all-time best-selling American authors is romance writer Danielle Steele. She's been writing for more than 40 years and has sold more than 800 million books. Have you read any of her work? I have read enough to know her work is formulaic

6) Have you ever dreamed of being an author? no

7) Do you have an e-reader? I have (almost) every model of Nook and I adore them

8) American Authors rang in 2016 in Chicago, giving an outdoor concert on New Year's Eve on a stage not far from Lake Michigan. There are 5 Great Lakes in all,including Lake Michigan. Without looking it up, name the other 4. Huron, Ontario, Erie, Superior (thanks to the acronym HOMES!)

9) Random question: You see photos on Facebook of a dinner party hosted by a friend. You recognize most of the attendees, yet you weren't invited. How do you feel? Left out and angry? Do you wonder what you may have done to offend your friend? Or do you just forget about it and move on? I wouldn't think anything of it

I really liked my nook when I got it. I have not used it in a while

Your contract negotiations are important work that have an impact on many lives. Glad it's going well. (Yea for you!)

Glad your negotiations went well. I like the Nook but tend to use the Kindle Paperwhite for reading more than anything. The Kindle Fire I use to play games. Right now my Samsung Nook is sort of in reserve.

How sweet that the teachers have you for a negotiator. They work so hard and really, they are undervalued!

I'm glad that The Nook has given kindle a run for it's money. ;o)
