Fun happenings in Iowa

okay so one of the nerdy things that Aaron and I have started doing this winter is reading books to each other. Now before everyone starts making fun of us for being nerdy, in our defense we live in Iowa, its winter, its a winter with no snow, and we dont like exercise. the snow and lack of exercise kinda rules out most other activities, we are left with video games, movies, and reading. Which to be honest I think we are both completely fine with at least i am, but the point is, we dont have tons of options when it comes to entertainment. I convinced him we should start reading together. We started with Grimm Fairy tales and HP Lovecraft short stories. Which were good, and there are a lot of them so it will probably take years for us to get through them all. As the Hunger Games movie quickly approaches (released on my birthday everyone so get excited), I decided he needed to read the Hunger Games before we go to the movie. SO i started reading it to him. We are now at the Victors (or the third and final portion of the book) and I must tell you it is soooooo much fun to watch someone get as excited and addicted to a story line as I am. He now travels with it so we can read it at both apartments. Its awesome. .......wait i just realized I was doing dishes......now Im blogging, and there is still hot water in my sink and dishes on the counter....I better go. Ive gotten a little distracted. Carry on everyone :)

A book and an explaination

So first off, my explanation. I took the name for my blog from some of Aaron's (my boyfriend) friends. I guess when we first started dating, they used to give him a hard time about my name and him being largely unavailable to hang out because he was with me. Trapped in a net, tangled in a net, caught in a net and so forth. Its pretty much the same punch line for all of these jokes but I think its funny because I dont recall anyone being so fond of using my name in this way, let alone 4 or 5 guys all making the same joke at roughly the same time, so anyways. that is how i got the name of my blog.

My book recommendation is the Janet Evanovich Stephanie Plum novels. I know I am late to this party but they have taken over my reading time. And in my defense I am late to the party because I think when they were first published i was reading Harry Potter books for the first time and I was most definitely at an appropriate age to be reading this particular type of adult fiction. Anyways I love them, and if you haven't tried them they are definitely worth a try. They are nice light easy reads that are exactly what people may need during Tax and budget approval time :)
Cheers.
