Weekly Run Down--May 4

What a great week it has been. My most popular post this week was one where I called out Nicholas Sparks as a saddist. I'm not sure if it had anything to do with the "just-because" picture of Channing Tatum or not, but who cares? It's Channing Tatum.

Twice in one week, Mr Tatum's made my blog.

Also this week, I (along with my friend Jennifer McMurrain) was filmed for The List. They came to my house, so I had to clean it up. It was almost a deal breaker. Almost. It was really sweet having another famous blogger open for me. She was kinda like the T-Town Tunes to my Bon Jovi. Oh yeah, I went there. 

I had a couple of great reviews to wind down the month with as well.  Check out what Brandi Barnett had  to say.  She's also giving away a copy!

My friend Sarah White got the first copy of her book this week and still took the time to post about TMI Mom.

And the good people over at Science of Parenthood hosted me up in their crib for a really fun interview.

To round out the week, I'm kinda involved in this fun little show in OKC called Listen To Your Mother. We've sold the show out twice--twice y'all. I hope you have your tickets and I hope to see you there!

Nicholas Sparks Is A Sadist

"It's almost summer!! You have to read Safe Haven," a bookish friend of mine recently suggested as we passed each other at the ballpark. "It's so good and you'll love it." I nodded. I'm always looking for a good book.

"And when you finish," she continued, "we can go watch it at the movies."

"It's a date!" I proclaimed, made a note in my phone and headed home. When I kicked the kids off of the computer, I looked up Safe Haven to see if our library had it. We are three weeks from summer vacation--it's time I started my summer-fun reading.  Good news was that they did have the book. Bad news was that it was written by Nicholas Sparks.
