I bought it, and I think I lent it to someone. I always intended to read it. I have very good intentions. As far as 'cool' is concerned, it's all about perspective and where you're standing (or sitting in my case.) YOU are part of the 'cool' people (in my opinion), and I would not be 'cool' enough to sit and have coffee and chat with you and Kristin. I'd have to borrow your t-shirt.

When I did a "free 2 day shipping" on Amazon, when ordering for my hubby, so tacked on Blue & Million Miles. I'm reading Blue 1st, of course & love how you described Don Miller! Whether out-of-shape or insecure, he is honest. When I finally said "Hi, I'm Shellie. I'm an addict." I had arrived honestly with myself to the disease of addiction. And to the 12 Steps of Recovery. It is not unlike Christianity. Those 1st tentative steps. Fear of the "others" on Earth throwing stones at me. Fear I can't live up to God's "rules". Insecure in me. Insecure in my Walk. Insecure with how others perceive me. And Donald Miller is showing me that it's ok as long as I am continually seeking God & letting Him shine through me. Like "How He Loves Me": "I am His portion and He is my prize". Wow. I must do the footwork and keep my eyes on that Prize!!!!! Thanks for making me excited to finish Blue Like Jazz (halfway there) and start Million Miles. :) Thanks for not throwing Million Miles into a bonfire or anything!

I'm so happy that he hasn't changed, I think I'll go get his latest. Thanks for the review so far, skinny jeans and all. This is funny and honest, a great combination.
