It's here.

Okay, so I haven't really posted about this much, because I didn't want to jinx it, but I finally get to cross something off my Wish List!

I will now share with you the pictures that tell the story.

What's this?  A box for moi?

Hmmm...

Does anyone else hear angels singing something gloriously wonderful?!?

It's in my hand!  It's in MY HAND!

Even the instruction book is fun.

Powering up!

This might possibly be the worst picture ever.  I love ya, Blackberry, but sometimes you really let me down.  But, every time you turn off the Kindle, it puts up a really cool picture.  This one was my favorite, so far.

I would like to thank my darling hubby, for totally coming through for my birthday.  I would like to thank Amazon, for being sneaky little devils and telling me my Kindle would be here between April 3 and April 8, but actually delivering it on April 1.  And I would like to thank peer pressure, for making me feel like a nobody because I didn't have the latest, hottest gadget.  I realize my Kindle will be technologically obsolete in a matter of months...but I don't care.  I am cool this week.

And what do you think the first book I uploaded via Whispernet (cool name, eh?) to my Kindle was?

What can I say?  I love me some Tori Spelling!

I know, I know.  Not the most thought-provoking book out there...but I don't read to get smarter.  I'm already perfectly brilliant.  I read for entertainment, and let me tell you, this family is entertaining!  Don't be jealous.

My pink silicone case and travel pack will be here soon...can't wait!

Top Moms

I saw a headline this morning for a countdown of the Top 15 Reality TV Moms.  I don't watch all of these shows, so I'm not sure if I agree...any arguments for or against any of these gals?

1. Kate Gosselin - Jon and Kate Plus 8 (TLC)

2. Michelle Duggar - 19 Kids and Counting (TLC)

3. Kris Jenner - Keeping Up With the Kardashians (E!)

4. Sharon Osbourne - The Celebrity Apprentice (NBC)

5. Tori Spelling - Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood (Oxygen)

6. Kim Zolciak - The Real Housewives of Atlanta (Bravo)

7. Sheree Whitfield - The Real Housewives of Atlanta (Bravo)

8. NeNe Leakes - The Real Housewives of Atlanta (Bravo)

9. Lisa Wu Hartwell - The Real Housewives of Atlanta (Bravo)

10. Alexis Bellino - The Real Housewives of Orange County (Bravo)

11. Lynne Curtin - The Real Housewives of Orange County (Bravo)

12. Tamra Barney - The Real Housewives of Orange County (Bravo)

13. Vicki Gunvalson - The Real Housewives of Orange County (Bravo)

14. All the moms from The Real Housewives of New York City sans Bethenny Frankel who is expecting her first child.

 

15. All the moms from The Real Housewives of New Jersey (Bravo)

Okay, I must confess that I love me some Real Housewives of Orange County, but I do NOT consider them great moms!  Each one is more self-obsessed than the next.  As a matter of fact, probably the only mom I really like and think is a good mom is Tori Spelling!  If you had told me 5 years ago that someday I would think Tori Spelling was a good mom, I would have laughed and then thrown a drink in your face.

But, as it turns out, not only do I really like her, but I think we are very similar!  And my husband has a man-crush on Dean.  We are the Tori and Dean of Eastern Washington, let me tell ya!

When I saw this list, I also thought, "Aren't there more reality TV moms than all the housewives a couple of other attention-starved weirdos?!"  But I'm having trouble coming up with any.  Yikes.  I don't need Grace to grow up thinking this is how moms are...where have all the Claire Huxtables gone?

Is there a mom you identify with on TV these days?
