Curse of the Spellman's

Is exactly what I needed. Looking forward to what happens with Stone and Izzy, and how Rae grows up.


Next up: Loving Frank.

No knitting updates. I’ve been busy reading!

Today I managed to wear a shirt with the tag still attached, my underwear inside out and my pants on backwards. Jealous?

books update

Reread Good Omens to great success. I knew all the parts, I just couldn’t figure out how they went together. Much better without missing the crucial 15%. Amazing.

Attempted Empress, but I’m having trouble getting into it. Couldn't make it even 10 pages.  And reviews on Amazon were mixed.   So i'm thinking about skipping it.  I may give up and reprise the Spellman’s instead.

Stay tuned.

On other notes:

The weather today: hot and sticky.  The weather tomorrow: hotter and stickier.  Why do we wish so longingly for summer when the reality is, it's a beast?

Also, I found out that I basically got screwed out of a weeks pay.  I'm bummed.  I was looking forward to getting paid for summer holidays.  Getting paid for days I don't work is my favorite.  But, it appears I'll have to wait until October.  Or get a real job.  My choice.

bookish thoughts

I am first in line for exactly half of my library waiting list . They’re all suspended books, waiting for me to have time to plow through them. The other half of the list is a handful of books that I’m still deeper into the line on. I’ve suspended all those preemptively. Everything else is CDs. I feel like this is somehow representative of me, but I can’t quite see it.

is not a fan of being stag at a party where I don't know anyone but the guests of honor. Harumph.

90 percent chance of overnight rain. Winds 20-30 mph. Low 61f. Reason 9564 why I'm still glad I don't have the paper route anymore.

On another note, I just tried to fall asleep with my glasses on. Almost worked too.
