I missed last weeks Pic-a-Week post as errands and general exhausting happened. Yes, I'm now at the month and half mark of the Sinus Infection of Doom! Went back to the doctor this week and am now on my third antibiotic (which can also be used in preventing or slowing exposure to anthrax). My doctor (Dr. Smith, hee!) said the next step will be to take me out and shoot me.
All that to say this: You'll be getting two posts today. And yes, one will be kitty-riffic.
This one, not as much. This about a book I recently purchased and read (rather quickly). It's the smuttiest thing I've ever read but still had plot! The book was this (click to make bigger):

This author has also done versions of The Phantom of the Opera and The Count of Monte Cristo. I have (but not read) the Phantom one and this one was cheap and I needed to round out an Amazon order.
But what really caught my eye was when I actually got the book. This is the dedication page:

Needless to say, I liked the ending.
In a few hours, you're going to see a whole lot of this young lady:

I liked it, but I also know it's not for everyone. As I said, I got it cheap from Amazon. You might try one of the resellers there. It would be even cheaper and you don't have to worry about the face-to-face thing.
