So I got a phone call from Tim tonight (he is at work - he manages a Harmon's and apparently they were unloading a shipment) This was the conversation
Tim - So guess what I am holding in my hand?
Me - What?
Tim - Breaking Dawn
Me - (after a moment that I had to process) WHAT!!!
Tim - Here, I'll read you the last page
After that I won't repeat it because it involved a lot of yelling on my part to cover the sound of his voice and a lot of laughter on his end. They got their shipment in to hold until the release!!
Many of you know that I am trying to be really good because Kayleen's baptism is on Saturday and I don't want anything to interfere with that so I am not going to the party and am not starting the book until Monday. At least that was the original plan. I didn't want to start it after everyone left on Saturday because then I would be totally useless on Sunday and that seems kind of wrong. I've held very strong on that ... until this week! I started my re-reading of the series. I finished Twilight this morning and am half way through New Moon (yes it's kind of been a wasted day). So my resolve is wavering. I really think I'll be able to hold out until after the baptism, but waiting till Monday???
Just a reminder to all of my lovely friends - go and have a wonderful time at the party - but NO whispered conversations about it at the baptism!!!

You are too much of a saint!! I would be threatening Tim to let me read it NOW! Actually, Tim, can you sneak me one? Name a price....
Does Tim really have it already? Yea- My vote would be for you to just get it from him and read it now and then it won't interfere with Saturday either!!
Hi Kristin, this is Kelli (aka Jaqui's sister). So, after reading your post and hearing from Jaqui how dedicated you are being to wait to read this book I was thinking....
Are you sure your not a Cullen? You know this whole dedicated to do the right thing is right up their alley!
Let me tell you that I will be getting it at midnight and aside from attending Kayleen's baptism, that is all I will be doing on Saturday. That's right, the only time I'm putting the book down is when I attend the baptism. Hee hee.
lol. i am so outta this series...don't know about it, but everyone else is reading it. must be really good. good luck!
I am still thinking about this today!! How can you stand it??? I keep looking for a post that says, "I went to Tim's work and secretly read Breaking Dawn in his office. Haha, I know what happens." You wouldn't do that to me, would you?
Jaqui and I were just talking and this is not a hoax or anything is it.. I mean did you really juet treaten Tim with every thing, and he caved and brought it home, you read it and then at 1201 you will have a post that says you read it.. You wouldn't would you??
