I am so glad I switched libraries. The people at Scarsdale are so much nicer, the hours are longer and they always have what I want. Today I took out White Teeth by Zadie Smith, a mulatta like me, First Love, Last Rites, Ian McEwan's first collection of short stories and a Joan Lunden cookbook and an American Heart Association Nutritional book.

I feel like being really lazy today. No motivation to do anything. It all starts when I don't get up at the right time. I set my alarm for eight and I got up at eleven ( Read more... )

There should be some word for when you want to update but you have nothing to say. I've watched no TV, read no books, done nothing special. I have gotten a lot fatter, though. I think I may join a fitness club, either Equinox or New York Sports Club depending on which one is cheaper. I just can't run outside in such dreary weather ( Read more... )

Making those lj icons was so much fun. I mean just writing them in your entry. In answer to dancingmaggot, I don't have a lot of bad memories of college mainly because I get rid of bad memories pretty well. I am much happier outside of coolege because I have no responsibility. I do miss a lot of people I was around during college, though, and I hope one day ( Read more... )

I've read three books featuring incest. I just finished a novella by Ian McEwan, his first book called The Cement Garden. It was cool to see how much smarter he got, or more learned or masterful or whatever as he grew older. Ian, I mean. there was definitely something really compelling about this book. It was really predictable in a lot of ( Read more... )

I'm sorry. Nothing has happened to me lately. I did read Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides though. I have to give it a big thumbs-down. I mean it didn't start getting interesting until midway through the book and then nothing too fantastic even happened after that. I think that what's his face just does not have the brains to pull a book of this ( Read more... )

Ugh. So I haven't really run in awhile. I feel like exercise is futile. I have all these hideous errands today. I missed Buffy last night. I heard about Dawn's mother's comments to Dawn. I think since if this season does turn out to be the last season, they will kill off Dawn. If not, they'll keep her alive. I can't wait until Faith comes ( Read more... )

I decided to rank the girls since I already ranked the guys.

Tara

That is in order of hottest to nottest. Hahahahahaha. Maybe I should make a friends list of just Buffy fans.

What is the shittiest thing about work ( Read more... )

I woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. I feel fat and I have to "work" today so I won't have time to run. Plus, I'm realizing that I cannot get on a diet. I've totally lost the ability to diet/eat healthy ( Read more... )
