I'm a lifelong book worm. Whenever I find a book that looks interesting, I read it. I don't buy novels, something I'll read once, I get those from the library. The books that I'll want to keep rereading, I get from the library to make sure that it's something i really want before I buy it. i'VEE

A small box full. I am reading them one by one between hot reads from the library. I always manage to acquire books to replace what I read. When I am done with a grocery bag worth, I will donate them to the senior center or VA.

Looking at a stack of 4 or 5 I bought the other week while we were in town, haven't got to them yet because I'm slowly working through "Gravity's Rainbow." Still some much older ones on the shelves here and there that I acquired but never yet have got around to. Ah joy!

I like to read and have many books to look forward to. I don't always have the time to finish reading one book before buying another.

I wish I did but a good quality emerald is so expensive. Yes, there are "created" emeralds, but unlike diamonds which look great, the created emeralds do not.

To continue my story (this is 3/3), I was very envious when one of my best friends got faux emeralds for her birthday and wore them first. However, I was happy to wear mine anyway. My friends bulled me because I was a "copycat" even tho they all knew I had received mine first. #meangirls!

My parents got me faux emeralds as my first pair of pierced earings and I looked at them in the box until my mom could find the "self-piercing" rings that slowly worked into your ear over a couple of weeks. When I proudly wore my birthstone earings to school my best friends bullied.

My birthstone is Amethyst. I like it. I like the color. But one, I prefer Emeralds. And two, I don't wear jewelry anymore.

No, I have no rubies, and I wept mock tears for my husband's benefit answering this.
