(no subject)
Today I had a two-hour block of babysitting no children. It was nice. I fell completely into the story of the book I am reading. There was one character... everything about him reminded me of someone else. He could have been that someone else. It was even a little unnerving. He doesn't read my livejournal anymore so it's okay to say that I thought of him a lot today. Reading that part of the book was like re-living some of the conversations we had, and the plans we talked about. I was really mad when things in the book changed. I debated putting it down. But I kept reading anyway.
And my train of thought has been broken by...
L: "Oh, I don't want the chicken. I just want the accessories."
So, new subject. I talked to my future roommate today. We started talking about who will bring what. I went shopping today and bought a very lightweight khaki-colored, micro fiber down comforter and a bright blue pillow for my bed. I'm going to get some sort of brightly colored sheets and some other colored pillows. It will be lovely. I also bought a little dry erase calendar and a shower container thing. Shopping with my own money is satisfying but definitely sucks at the same time.
And for my last bit of randomness... Final Destination is the scariest movie I've ever seen. The way it portrays death is horrifying and scares the hell out of me. I will be jumpy and paranoid for a week. Maybe more.
