Books and memories
This morning I woke up remembering it was a Friday, and all of a sudden was thrown back in time some a year and a half ago - when it was a Friday and I was waking up after a week at school and I had a day off, and I had an episode of "Supernatural" waiting for me. So I started the download and went to make myself some breakfast, and when I returned the episode was ready and I was engulfed by that story.
And here I am, not watching that series anymore, and with a head so full of worries that I can't really enjoy this Friday.
But I made a cake, with pares cooked in white wine and spices, and the smell makes me just a little bit better.
These worries, they just won't go away yet, not until I wrap up this fucking degree.
Anyway.
I've been a good girl when it comes to books - some five or six (mostly new) books read in the past two-three weeks. I took a break from "Children of Dune" (which will be my last "Dune" book, I think - I have enough craziness in my life, and it's not even the right kind of crazy) to get through "Beautiful Creatures", which turned out to be the first of a series. Seriously, people - why? You have a good idea, make a book out of it, it doesn't have to last three, four, ten books. I mean, each and evey "Young Adult Fantasy" book I've read lately turned out to be the first of a series. The book itself was really good, but no real ending, so I hunted down the fact that there were more. Time for my amazon account to make an appearance...
My sister's birthday party tomorrow - for the family, no friends. I don't think she'll throw one this year, with everything that has happened (and the fact that she's now dating a guy with three children of his own who dumped her twice already). God only knows where this whole thing will end.
One good thing though - T.V. Shows started coming back, and will be almost completely in full mode by the end of September (with the sole exception of "Bones".) Also, the "True Blood" season finale was one big bloodbath - we lost Jesus, Nan, Tara and Debbie. The only person I will really miss is Jesus, and now that Lafayette lost everyone he loved (and he was the one to kill Jesus when he was possessed by Marnie) he'll go bonkers. I loved Jesus - I love a happy couple, but I guess it's "Not interesting". Whatever. Tara was annoying since Day 0ne, and also Nan, and Debbie was just a fucking bitch and I wasn't sorry to see Sookie shoot her in the head (after Debbie shot Tara who jumped in front of Sookie to save her). It was goo-ood.
That is that.
