So I had a fabulous day yesterday! It was a day off, so to speak, where I went and spent the day with my friends. It was my old ‘group’ that used to hang out back before I had Emma, and for awhile after I had her. There’s my best friend, her hubby, and his two really good friends. My best friend got married a couple years ago, and we were all in the wedding party so we spent a lot of time together that year. It was a big wedding. Anyway, yesterday we all got together and hung out. So much fun! We watched Coming to America, and both Pirates of the Caribbean movies, before going to see the third. We ate, we drank a little (but made sure to take taxi’s to the movie, because we don’t want to be like Paris Hilton!) The third Pirates was pretty good. It was such a nice day for me.
Publishers report drop in book sales
From Reuters
May 23, 2007
Americans bought $24.2 billion worth of books in 2006, slightly less than the previous year, an industry group said Tuesday, reporting sharp falls in religious and audio-book sales but an increase in e-books.
The Assn. of American Publishers said total sales by U.S. publishers last year were estimated at $24.197 billion, down from $24.263 billion in 2005.
Religious book sales fell 10.2% to $745 million while audio-books dropped 11.7% to $182 million. Spurred by progress in digital technology, sales of e-books jumped 24.1% to $54 million.
Sounds like it was a great day.
Good thing with the taxi!
