Gosh, you are certainly quite a good deal! :)

I wish my nightstand had that much empty real estate on it!!

And the $15? So many bad bad things popped into my head when I saw that...

Posted by Teenuh | February 11, 2007 7:57 PM

Only $15? You can charge WAY more than that! :)

Posted by Beth in StL | February 11, 2007 8:14 PM

Wow! We should start trading books. I read like you do, I have 5 on my night stand right now.

Is the cash for last night?

(so kidding)

Whoops - sorry for the double post.

Posted by Beth in StL | February 11, 2007 8:16 PM

It is seriously that warm outside where you are? I AM ON MY WAY.

Oh, or maybe you have the sensor in the baby's room.

$15? Either you or Chris need to enter a new profession!;)

All of our evil minds working together.

If you slept with me, I'd pay WAY more.

(Unless he's paying you in books. In which case, good deal!)

Posted by s@bd | February 11, 2007 10:49 PM

Darlin', it's all been said.

Posted by Heather | February 11, 2007 11:52 PM

I'm so pathetic I didn't even think about the payment mentioned in the comments.

I'm very glad that I'm not the only one that has yet to read THE NANNY DIARIES.

Posted by Maria | February 12, 2007 6:19 AM

Wow you get a whole $15???

Posted by Tuesday | February 12, 2007 8:37 AM

You're cheating, we want to see IN the nightstand, not ON the nightstand ;)

Posted by JuJuBee | February 12, 2007 8:55 AM

Was it good for you?

Like I could resist saying that...

And you wonder why you have more traffic on this site! :-)

Posted by Diane | February 12, 2007 9:05 AM

i beat you. this morning my husband left me a $20 :)
but it IS canadian money...so it's probably worth the same...

Posted by ali | February 12, 2007 9:28 AM

ok so i totally didn't have the nasty minds that half of these people do. Instead, I thought hey, I love that book the Nanny Diaries and wow, she has $15 more than I do!

Posted by Mrs. M | February 12, 2007 9:34 AM

can i borrow that $15?

Posted by jessica | February 12, 2007 9:48 AM

Is your nightstand really that neat, or did you tidy it up for the picture?

Posted by Kate the Shrew | February 12, 2007 10:14 AM

all the comments i wanted to make, but everyone else beat me to it! hope you got your 15 dollars worth!

Posted by nikki | February 12, 2007 10:17 AM

Have you been shakin' your money maker again?

Posted by Heather J. | February 12, 2007 10:25 AM

What is the title of the yellow, grean and orange book with the little remote, light thingie on top of it? It looks like a book I've read, but I can't remember the title!!

Oh, and here is the required HAHA:
Whoa! Only $15?? :)

Posted by Dirka | February 12, 2007 10:27 AM

Hey...can I borrow $15? I kid, I kid! What I really wanted to say is that I have that same Raymond Carver book in my bedroom bookshelf. It's wonderful!

Posted by wordgirl | February 12, 2007 11:07 AM

Loved The Nanny Diaries!!!

Posted by Amy | February 12, 2007 11:12 AM

You have one of my favorite books -- Everyday Blessings by the Kabat-Zinns!

Posted by Sandy | February 12, 2007 11:42 AM

Chris lies! In his diagram of where the three of you sleep he drew lamps on your nightstands. I demand recompense!

Posted by Full Feed Adam | February 12, 2007 11:46 AM

I just bought The Nanny Diaries this weekend! Also, can I borrow some money?

Posted by Sparkle Pants | February 12, 2007 12:01 PM

Hee, I'm working my way through a crazy book-stack as well. I have to keep renewing the library ones because I can't stand to give up on any of them yet.

Enjoy The Nanny Diaries -- it's great!

Posted by supine | February 12, 2007 12:21 PM

Add a water bottle, subtract $14.97, shuffle the books and change a couple titles and you've got my nightstand!

Posted by Susan | February 12, 2007 12:25 PM

OMG - there are so many jokes about that $15 on the nightstand!!!!!! I'll refrain.

~Jef

Posted by Edge | February 12, 2007 12:50 PM

I will not refrain. I know that that $15 was actually STOLEN from your husband's wallet before he went to work, unsuspecting of the lack of cash he now has.

You're all the same. You want our bodies and our 5s and 10s.

Posted by Brad | February 12, 2007 1:07 PM

Heck, my husband leaves me his entire paycheck! Woohoo! :) Okay, for me to take to the bank, but still...

And your nightstand is very tidy indeed. But where's Mia in all of this?

Posted by Sam | February 12, 2007 2:15 PM

Only $15!!

I didn't know Chris could be bought so cheap.

Posted by Math dA/dy | February 12, 2007 2:31 PM

You certainly read a higher quality of fiction than I do.

Now I am embarrassed.

Posted by Jen | February 12, 2007 3:42 PM

Ahh- The Nanny Diaries! You will love Grayer. So much that you will wish you could be a nanny, just so you could hang out with this cool little human.

Or maybe that's just me. :)

Posted by Ali | February 12, 2007 4:44 PM

Love Raymond Carver. You can skip the Nanny Diaries - it's pretty awful in my opinion. And hey your nightstand is dusted and clean! Nice job!

Posted by Jessica | February 12, 2007 6:32 PM

I'm reading the Nanny Diaries right now as well. Total delicious fluff for the brain that can't hold everything!

And Carver? I was sooooo into Carver in College. He's so freaking tragic and gritty and stunningly beautiful all at the same time.

My itty bitty book light knock-off is making me CRAZY. The hinge is all loose and so as I'm reading the neck slowly slides down until it's only illuminating one word. GAH!

And lastly, what'cha gonna spend that cash on? HUH? HUH?
