Here's what I got...

I had not seen either of them at all during Easter week.
"Are you up?" she asked.
"I'm up," I said, and Teddy, holding out his arms, climbed over onto me.

The Pleasure Of My Company, by Steve Martin. Its what I got at B&N today....
It could have been my daughter's book, The Amazing Days of Abby Hayes...it was in the same bag...but only had 119 pages...

I just love Steve Martin's writing. I thought Shopgirl was great! His novellas are great for me because they don't take a big investment of time and aren't too heavy on the noggin.
