Main Squeezes
After the sixth person brought up my off-handed use of the phrase 'main squeeze' a few entries back, I realized that this is interesting subject matter to some of my readers!

I'm seven books deep into my quest to read 25 books in 2007. I'm adding them all to this collection:

Well that bit sent me straight to the dictionary. You are right about both and I confess to being a little surprised. While I have never needed to use the word "ravel" in a sentence, if I were tested on its meaning I would have guessed it wrong. I am less surprised by iterate and reiterate, what with our need to iterate everything repeatedly. ;-)
Oh and hey: Pick me! Pick me!

And 3 of the books you've read this year are on my bookshelf waiting for me to get to them (Grace (Eventually); Love is a Mix Tape; and Eat, Pray, Love). So many good books, and I always feel like I'm running behind in reading them.
