Life has been crazy.
And yet life hasn’t moved.
I’m still not in school (but I’m enrolling soon). (Promise!)
I still have those two close friends up here in the Pacific Northwest.
And I’m working the same job I’ve had for the last 7 months. Yay me!
But then some things haven’t been so great. Or, at least, devastating to my still, glossy lake of a life.
I slept with one of my brother’s friends. His best friend, actually. A guy I’ve known for nearly half my life (that’s eleven years, for those who don’t know), and it was great. But now I’m having thoughts about it, and that’s not good for a variety of reasons.
New books: Karen Marie Moning’s Shadowfever came out this year (which I’m reading) and Kim Harrison’s Pale Demon (which I just finished).
I’m also getting into the Artemis Fowl series, although I’ve only read the first three so far. Neil Gaiman’s Sandman series- I’ve read the first four volumes of… and that’s it as far as series go, I think.
I’m also currently reading Libba Bray’s A Great and Terrible Beauty, which is really good. I have Going Bovine for when I finish it. And I’m going to give the Anita Blake series another chance by starting at the beginning (instead of trying out a book from the most recent releases in the series, which contain the Ardeur which most critiques I’ve heard/read called it a Deus Ex Machina. I’m hoping from starting at the beginning I can have a clear and open mind toward the series.
Other than that… I read a biography on Einstein, a memoir on eating disorders, The Doors of Perception by Aldous Huxley, as well as Brave New World. The Time Machine by HG Wells, which I very much enjoyed. And my absolute favorite read from last year was The Goats by Brock Cole.
