They stood out on a street full of yuppies. :-)<BR/><BR/>Nicole: I'm the same way--I find myself not buying other things so I can buy more books. The boxes of books I sent home from RWA were disgraceful, but I get to do some fun reading!<BR/><BR/>Janet: Thanks re Rees. I love those Shareem guys. I envy you more time to read, though! Yesterday I decided to stop everything, make popcorn, and read the last 100 pages of a novel. I'm glad I did.<BR/><BR/>Thanks again, Hussies, for inviting me to the blog. It was fun!Jennifer Ashley/ Allyson James / Ashley Gardnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16501969781398343424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37096942.post-30239101160873828202008-08-06T20:33:00.000-04:002008-08-06T20:33:00.000-04:00Hi Allyson,I think my book purchases have increase...Hi Allyson,<BR/><BR/>I think my book purchases have increased this year also. Not really the economy, just I work only one job now and have way more time to read.<BR/><BR/>Loved Rees - Tales of the Shareem.JHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03080622326720792019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37096942.post-18966532821536999092008-08-06T03:47:00.000-04:002008-08-06T03:47:00.000-04:00I'll give up a lot of other things just to get my ...I'll give up a lot of other things just to get my book fix! Heck, I'll even give up my fancy coffee for book. Especially if they feature yummy heroes. *sigh*<BR/><BR/>Thanks for blogging with us, Allyson.

Having worked with crews I never saw them that way. Tired, dirty and ready to go home? You bet'cha. Maybe you caught them at the end of a 14 hour day? Enjoyed reading your post. Thanks so much for sharing your adventure with us!!<BR/><BR/>Hugs-<BR/>CiCiana / Synecahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07299482063801023059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37096942.post-86130573572932508412008-08-05T14:01:00.000-04:002008-08-05T14:01:00.000-04:00Maggie: Good to hear!

I was shameless. :-) I think it's true that people turn to books in times of stress. It's fairly inexpensive and takes your mind off your troubles. Thanks again for having me Sally, et al.<BR/><BR/>AllysonJennifer Ashley/ Allyson James / Ashley Gardnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16501969781398343424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37096942.post-3540555224219741352008-08-05T11:22:00.000-04:002008-08-05T11:22:00.000-04:00Hey Allyson! So glad to have you blogging with us ...Hey Allyson! So glad to have you blogging with us today. What a great post. I agree about readers buying MORE books during economic difficulties. Every business article I've ever read about recessions and books shows book sales thrive because people need the escape more than ever. <BR/><BR/>Glad you had such a great time. I have relatives around San Fran and I LOVE that city, almost moved there a few years ago.<BR/><BR/>Hussy Hugs and thanks again for sharing your day with us!Sally Painterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05591161506655566078noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37096942.post-60643214200438650102008-08-05T10:18:00.000-04:002008-08-05T10:18:00.000-04:00Hi Allyson,How are you?
