Some random facts about me and things I noticed while watching the ACAs:
- The two country concerts I have gone to this year have been Kenny Chesney with Billy Currington and Uncle Kracker; and then Zac Brown Band. I didn't realize how popular they are, I knew they were popular just not as much, numerous nominations all night!
- I realized why male country singers are considered so sexy. A lot of them have really rich deep voices. Even if they aren't all that attractive in appearance they start talking and all the sudden they start looking better :)
*I noticed this with the first two males to talk, Trace Adkins and Josh Turner. I might have spoken too soon, after watching the show a bit more!*

Book Clubs
I was thinking about book clubs today and the ones that I have been in. I find it interesting that I have never been in the "normal" book clubs where a group of friends, who like to read, get together and form a club.
When I was younger I was in a book club through a book store aimed towards children. Most of the other children in the club were my friends, but that is beside the point.
After college I was in a The Book Club That Doesn't Read Books. In that group we would get together about once a month for a potluck and talk about books, among other topics, however, we were never reading the same book.
Since I have moved to Seattle I am in an online book club. Again, a lot of the other people in the club I know, but we don't have monthly meetings together, although I have heard rumors that some of the members get together in Denver.
I am also in a Meet-up book club. This is probably the most like the clubs I picture when I think about a book club, but I didn't know anybody before I joined, some meetings I still don't know anyone there.
All in all I think I like these different book clubs more! They are more fun and interesting. I have met more people who love to read this way and can recommend different books to my friends and family, and they can recommend books to me!
