        Love David Sedaris! I like his essays more than his short stories because real life is weirder and more entertaining than fiction sometimes!

          Honestly I could never read during night time feedings. I mostly dozed or watched late night TV.

            I watched old America's Funniest Videos--you can watch it on mute, it doesn't matter if you fall asleep in the middle of it, and you don't need more than two active brain cells to watch it (wiffle bat to the crotch heh heh heh). When I actually started DVRing it my husband was like "Are you OKAY?"

                We don't have a TV in our bedroom, or else I would totally be watching Real Housewives on demand and probably never sleeping at all. I do have my iPad, which is how I usually read. I bet I could get some shows on there, not a bad idea!

                  Sorry, I just cannot get past the part where you said she's still waking you every 2 hours. You poor thing!

                    You could do Netflix/Hulu Plus on the iPad, too!

                      I have two requirements for a nursery: 1. there must be a TV and 2. there must be a bed or couch to sleep on. Also a plus in a home with round the clock nursing, a gaming system for day time nursing sessions. It seems the iPad can cover most of these items (maybe that should be a new Apple advertising campaign).

                        My husband adores these. I think he still harbors ambitions of being a doctor/pilot/park ranger.

                            I do!! That is good to know! If I can watch my housewives on my iPad I will be the most sleep deprived person ever.

                            MrsK- She is such a drama queen! She was sleeping through the night for a while, and now I think she's just in the habit of waking up. I've started to not get her up every time she whines, and just wait for her to stop. A lot of the time she falls back asleep. I'm just so much in the habit of rolling over and picking her up every time she makes a noise. It's mostly my fault.

                                I know what you mean about The Help but aside from that it was an easy read. It was annoying and at first I was like I found errors this early into it!? Until I realized what the author was doing, and the typos came later lol. Have you ver read The Alchemist? I liked Anna Karenina and Jane Austen books are pretty good too but I kind of have boring taste.
