Kindle Me!

During a Memorial Day weekend picnic, I had to break the bad news to a friend of ours. She works at a small bookstore.

I had to come clean about the new Kindle I had bought. We had brought it to the event because I had bought a few books for Bridget since she was fascinated by it. I wanted to tell our friend myself instead of having her see it by mistake.

I could tell by the look on her face that she did not like this development. After she heard the news, she set her jaw and looked squarely in my eyes.

“Brian, I want to punch you right now.”
