I sure am, and know it. 
But one thing, Mike isn't as old as his post made him seem!

Yes, we do enjoy ourselves and each other. I am lucky to have found her. She keeps me young and energized.
Take note DSaff, you are a lucky woman!!!!!!!

Hello! My name is Anne and I'm from MA. This will be my 3rd First Look book if I signed up correctly and get the chance to read Of Bees and Mist. Speaking of signing up....I was wondering if anyone else noticed that the PM was slightly different then previous times. My other book requests went to an EDITOR at First Look. This one seemed to be sent directly to BeesMistReg mailbox. I see it in my sent folder, but I am nervous I have done something wrong. I would hate to miss out on the chance for this book because I am computer illiterate. (I have spent too many hours reading books I guess and not enough time on a pc!) If anyone can tell me if they think this sounds ok or if I should retry my registration attempt I would greatly appreciate it! I'm looking forward to another great read and a chance to discuss it with this insightful group.
Hi AMoriarty,
I noticed the same thing! I posted this question to Paul on the "How to get your free copy..." thread and I am waiting to hear. You might want to check there to see if he responds.
As long as I am here I will introduce myself to those of you who don't know me. My name is Paula and I live on Long Island. I have two almost-grown children and I work in a Kindergarten Center where I am in charge of the library. This will be my 5th First Look (if I get in) and I am excited to get started. I absolutely LOVED Physic Book and hope that this book captures me as well (sounds like it will!). I am glad to see so many of you back for another round.
Ponie, I'm doing the little brown truck dance as well!
Hey everyone,
I am Dawn from the great state of TN, but my heart is in New Orleans (my only son and daughter in law recently located there.)
Like many of you, I popped home from work today to register, now the hard part (aka, paranoia) begins...waiting for confirmation and receipt of package! You know, there are support groups for obsessions of this type. I guess this forum is ours.
It's always a pleasure to be a part of this book club. There are so many intelligent, thought provoking discussions. It is especially enjoyable for me when the book offered is not my typical read. Can't wait to get started.
Are you guys Kidding!!?? I've been hovering over this site for weeks just to find out when the new FL would be announced. I realized around 2pm (central time) that the book was already taking requests. Obesession??? just a little, but i think it's a healthy one.
Glad to be among a group who feel just as passionate as I about this.

This selection looks very interesting. This is my 3rd FL adventure!
Hey ponie,
I too was hovering most of the morning while checking for any unread posts. I saw the message that the new book had been posted at 11:56AM here on the East Coast, so I immediately went up and registered. So I guess I am also doing the book waiting dance.
Mike, I have just barely rested up from our previous TPBODD adventure!! Maybe got 2 loads of laundry done!!!
This looks exciting. I've decide dust is protective coating for my furniture so I no longer remove it!!!!
Gives me more time to read and respond to posts!!!
ROFL

How was the Easter trip? I thought of you while we were there. We had an awesome time! Already trying to plan the next trip.

Nancy,
Thank you for asking-we had a lovely time (although I cried most of the way home.) My son and new daughter in law surprised me with a lovely wedding photo album for my birthday, which to me is priceless! Had a wonderful time, ate waaaaay too much (including a crawfish boil at their new home) as I always seem to do on visits there. Hoping to return in May .
What about your trip? Did you visit for Jazz Fest? Don't you think this book sounds intriguing? I, once again, am looking forward to the discussion.
Actually we missed Jazz Fest (came home 4/20), but really enjoyed French Quarter Fest (first time,but will be back). I agree, that makes a wonderful birthday gift, something no one else could give you.
I am really looking forward to this book. (reminds me of my family ) I should be able to participate a little more in discussions this time as there are no vacations scheduled, and I think I'm a little more comfortable this time.
