If you go, go all the way, don't look back...

So I checked out a book- I do that a lot. I'll check out a book and skim through it later. Then, if I don't like it, it stays in the trunk of my car until the check-in date. Books are a good habit I have kept over the years. What's special about this particular book is that I have checked it out 3 times already.
I have checked it out and lost interest, then wondered to myself, "Why do I keep checking out this book?". Sort of like men, but I'm not gonna go there...

Anyway, it's called As Hot as it was, You Ought to Thank Me.

I've read three pages of it and I've fallen in love. I'm just confused as to why. Why now?
(I could go on some deep tangent as to why we don't accept or love some great things in out lives at certain time, and how we tend to dump people or habits or job, when we shouldn't but it's late and I won't. I'm also too lazy to link the book title.)


A friend ignored my phone call tonight because Heroes was on. And sent me a text saying that she did because of that fact. I laughed my ass off! Why do people allow their lives to be held hostage by a television show? People who are almost always in control of every aspect of their lives are now, confined to a time slot. There should be support groups for when the seasons end.


I have noticed that the older that we get the less we are comically honest... If we happen to retain the habit of calling things how we see it when it's inconvenient for others we are called tactless, and not cute. It only works when we are really young or really old.... I think at that point it's the only fun we are allowed to have.

i wanted to check out a book but they didn't have it at the library. so it's on order. it's called something like the end of america: letters to a patriot. it's about how the bush admin. is turning into a dictatorship.

how do we be friends on blogger?
