A couple of weeks ago, my extended family was in town for my cousins wedding. I was bemoaning Ryan's sleeping problems and another cousin told me about a book his wife swears by, but he couldn't remember the name of it. That night I got on the internet and found the book I thought he was probably talking about, but just to be sure I called as soon as I knew his wife was available and verified the title.
I checked the books availability on-line for my two local book stores, but neither had it in stock. So I checked out Amazon but it wouldn't get here for at least 5 days. I needed the book NOW. And then I remembered that we have a Kindle app for our Ipad and Ipod. (Kindle is the Ebook reader from Amazon). Sure enough the book was available for Kindle. So now the dilemma. It's a reference book and so I would like to have a hard copy so I can flip between chapters and only read what was pertinent, but I'm also impatient and didn't want to wait the 5 days to get the book in the mail. What's a girl to do?
I'm sure you guessed what choice I made. I had that book purchased, downloaded and had started reading it in less than 5 minutes. Totally Impatient!!!

what's the name of the book?
Sounds like the totally rational, logical and in fact, the only decision!
That's what happens when you marry into a family of nerds. I'm sorry that our family enables your descent into impatience.
For what it's worth, that's what happened to the rest of us. :)
