- my computer at work started to shit all over itself, which just killed my morning. Fortunately the alleve and tea seem to be doing the trick. Screw soda* forever.
+ steve bought me a latte to compensate for my caffeine crash, and then we went to the bookstore, where he bought a lot of books.
- I'm really nonplussed by the new trend of "light fiction" - it all looks like Bridget Jones' Diary + internet, or girls trying to sleep with rockstars... I dunno, I always think plots are stupid, and I guess my life is just actually interesting now. Actually, what I said was that every single person we know is pretty much a caricature, so knowing them is more interesting than reading a book "based on" them.
+ the weather. oh my god, the weather. 60 and drizzly, leaves are changing, i'm drinking hot tea and i'm madly in love with seattle again. the summer i adore, but the autumn is sublime. it crawls up under your skin and just when you least expect it, burns into your brain. I'm even wearing sandals it feels so good. the rain makes everything look so clear, colors so bright, as I seem to walk through a cloud.
- let's not even talk about my social/personal life. Completely in shambles. I think more will be revealed in a FO post.
