I care.
That, my friends, is half my problem.
I am totally irresponsible.
That, good sir, is the main problem.
After sulking for awhile, I went to Border's with the intent & purpose of starting The Holy (DQ's newest), but inevitably got distracted. I looked at one of my favorite books of all time, the Earth from Above 365 photos thingy which I will never buy, it being $30 & me being broke. Then I read After Dachau, Daniel Quinn's mystery/novel.
Jesus. What an incredible book. I want you all to go get it & read it right now. Or spend 5 hours at Border's doing such. My earache went unnoticed for much of that time. I am so happy.
Or you could use this wonderful thing called the library, which I was just informed of today by my friend Autumn W. Curiouser & curiouser.
No seriously. Go read After Dachau. Then come back & talk to me.
It's okay that I use Border's as a library.... you really didn't think I got out of there without purchasing? I found Lois Lowry's Gathering Blue, billed as the companion to The Giver. This is gonna drive me crazy. I'll have to read it tommarrow. (I still have Physics homework tonight. responsibility....) I loved The Giver. I almost don't believe it's a children's novel. I think it's the Ishmael for children. (because Ishmael is for adults? not at all! they're really similar, now that you mention it.) Maybe. But so good.
And I of course bought another travel log. A woman is nothing without her vices.
I hit all green lights on the way home & sang with Ani.
Now I'm going to walk my puppy. Because I care.... & it's an easy thing to be responsible about.
