The exact reason I don't let mine in at night

Exactly!

 

Yes, but on the other hand it's so nice to fall asleep with a purring cat curled up to you.

 

I used to let them sleep in my room, but they never stay for more than a few hours, so they would wake me up when they would get up and leave or when they would come back in and jump on the bed

 

Mine roam around too, but I'm usually too zonked out to wake up from it.

 

I got the new Ken Follett book. It's fucking HUGE!! :shock:

 

Ever thought of going to an e-reader Yay?

 

You mean like a Kindle?

 

I've thought about it. Mainly because I'm running out of book space in my apartment, and because when I try to read giant books like the new Ken Follett one in bed I almost pull a muscle.
But I think I love the smell and feel of books too much to convert to an e-reader.

 

I was thinking of getting one for my dad, but I don't know if he would like it or not. I think he feels the same way as you do...there's something about the smell and feel of a real book.

 

If they weren't so expensive I might have gotten one just to try how it is.

 

They are getting a lot cheaper :33:

And the advantage is they hold a TON of books in them

 

They're around 200 Euro here. The Kindle is not even available here yet!

 

I like being surrounded by books.

 

Wow, really? :shock:

The smaller one is only $139 here

 

I started reading e-books a few years ago............you do miss a few things like the feel of a book and especially the smell..........but it's cheaper and very convenient.

 

And I just saw that the Kindle holds 3500 books :shock:

 

God I love that feeling.....it's like being at the center of the universal....and you know you can just pick and open a book and jump into a whole new world.

 

Nice!!

 

I doubt any are available here.
