Everyone's wishing and wanting for something -when you get what you want you don't want what you get

Well...

Let's just say I haven't really done anything of note to write on and on about. Actually, that isn't entirely true, so I'm writing now to pretend it's something bigger than I think it is.

Made my summer book list and if you want to see it, take a gander...

Black Coffee
Maskerade
Life, the Universe, and Everything
So Long and Thanks for All the Fish
Mostly Harmless
Da Vinci Code
An Assembly Such as This
Sense and Nonsensibilty
Emma*
Hedda Gabler*
Choke
On the Road*
Knight of the Burning Pestle
The Labours of Hercules
Leaves of Grass*
Me Talk Pretty One Day
Eats Shoots and Leaves
The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe*
Walden*
The Birthday Party*
The Symposium*
The Persecutionand Assassination of Jean-Paul Marat as Performed by the Inmates of the Asylum of Charenton Under the Direction of the Marquis De Sade*
Lady Chatterley's Lover
Allen Ginsberg; Spontaneous Minds*
Haunted
What in the Word?*
On Writing Well*
Writer's Market
* = started

As I know I will probably be adding more books to the list as I glance over my private library in the future (Mystic River sits on the shelf nagging me right now as does Peter Pan every time I wander into a children's section at Borders) I won't say this is the final list. Nor that a few won't drop from the list (just in case D.H. Lawrence is everything I've been dreading...). As such, if you know of any books you feel I should read, please suggest them.

Other than that, I've gotten advice on what to do with my life (as you might glean from my last three books and the hodgepodge of classics on my list). Here's hoping.

Oh, and I need a real job. That pays consistantly. So that's fun. Still looking for that.

"Accomplished" isn't the right word, but it's the first one that comes to mind.
