epidemic

yesterday i stayed in most of the day and just putsied around the pad. it was loverly. i did meet up with melissa for a late breakfast at the goat, but the rest of the day was spent at home relaxing. ah, it was magical.

i haven't been going to the goat much lately, but being there reminded me of how much i love it. i'm going to try and go there more often. it was just really neat to people watch, everyone was just so different, and there was a plethora of colour. i got the non-traditional breakfast, it was so good! i'll totally get that again, it included beans&rice, roasted potatoes and tomato. very yummy! i'm glad i tried something new :)

i rented "ten canoes" which turned out to be a bit of a bust, i don't know if it was the movie that was making me feel tired, but i decided that since i was tired i should just go to bed! i'm weird that way, i tend to ignore my body when it tells me it's time for bed. so i turned off the light at 9:52. on a saturday night :) apparently i like to be backwards.

i made my first two mixed-cds on friday night. i'm very pleased with them, i think they're great compilations. i'm very excited.

this week is gearing up to be a little on the busy side. i think i have a problem. i don't know how to stop. i want so much to get off this crazy, mental, out of control merry-go-round, but it's not slowing down.

when do you know it's time to quit the book you're reading and start another one? because anne of avonlea is not holding my attention and there's another book that's waiting to be cracked open. one that ticks my fancy a little more. hmm, i wonder where my fancy is. and how does that book know how to find it...

everybody seems to think i'm lazy,
i don't mind, i think they're crazy.
running everywhere at such a speed,
till they find, there's no need.

as much as I love her books, I have to be in just the right mood to read Lucy Maud Montgomery. Don't beat yourself over the head with Anne of Avonlea.

yeah, i agree.
as an avid reader who once took three years (!) to read the brothers karamazov (all meat, no filler) i think it's fine to put a book "on hold" indefinitely.

i have a couple of classics on hold right now while i shmooze with some perhaps less-worthy novel.

if another book is calling you, ditch anne and go for it. there's no fidelity in reading. besides, there will come a rainy afternoon when anne is just what you want.

thanks girls. i'll put it on hold. i'm already pretty hooked on my new book. so that's good.

actually, i think i'll turn off my mac and get into bed to read for a bit right now!

night!
