Mmm. Going to NJ was fun. The only irritation besides my not managing to avoid ALL the tolls was the 40 dollar ticket I got for not putting an addition 25 cents int he parking meter for another thirty minutes. Jebus, that should be criminal. 25 cents should not equal a 40 dollar ticket.
Otherwise. I've been reading a lot of books. Not many were on my book list. I got two books on CD to transfer to my MP3 [Oryx and Crake + The Road] and I listened to Anansi Boys by Gaimon on the way up. I really liked it, and I think I should just devour his catalog of stories when I get the chance. At the moment I'm trapped in Raymond E. Feist's books. I've read 6 so far, The Riftwar Saga and the Krondor's Sons books. The Serpent War is next, but I have Storm Front and Good Omens to read before I get that saga. Mmm. Good Omens. I think I'll buy that book, since I really will read it over and over again over the years. Along with Devon Monks series of books. I read the new one and realized I forgot way too much of what happened e____e and the second half comes out in November. I have Watership Down, too. Wow, I have a lot of books out.
Otherwise, I've been wanting to draw, and I've been thinking a lot about the story I put on hold after finishing NaNo two years ago... I'm still really stuck between having the Organizations being legal or illegal. I seriously need to come up with a concrete list of the positives and negatives, but I can only think of how the story will feel if I change it. Even if this is only going to be a short story [I already started the outline by hand] changing this might mean I have to redo everything else I did before. I'm not too sad about it, but that goes on the list of positives and negatives.
And now, I'm going to go and make dinner for my mother's birthday. Because I'm a shitty daughter who forgot it was her birthday until her 7 year-old sister reminded her at 9pm. So I proceeded to not say anything and now that I did the shopping I will make dinner, clean the kitchen and try not to be so shitty a daughter.
I'm sure there were other things I wanted to say, but after my comp blue screened and I had to finish this on my mother's comp, I'm off to do... work...
