I don't feel like going to sleep.. but there's nothing I can do at the moment. Which is why I got on good 'ole LiveJournal, which has kept me occupied for hours on end the past few weeks.
In other news, The Story of Mankind has not gotten any better. The first 10 or so chapters tricked me into thinking they were all very short and to the point, as well as having several illustrations, which raised morale quite a bit. But after chapter 20 they started talking about the Romans and just droned on and on, with page upon page of nothing but words. After I recovered from that, I read Ch. 21 which was a 2 page summary of the first 20 chapters, then 22 wasn't all that bad, 23 was just okay and then 24 was another really long one. After that I shut the book and collapsed onto the floor, thinking that it couldn't possible get any worse. And I still have to write an essay to go along with it, which requires more research and looking things up that I don't care about. But since there really isn't anything I can do about it, and I really should be grateful for getting to go to JP2 with all my good friends in the first place, I suppose I should stop whining, get my lazy butt away from the computer, and get to reading.
Well...... maybe later. It's terrible when you have to force yourself to read something, do you not agree?
That's all for now. I need to get some blank CD's tomorrow. I'll try to get that thing up there at least within a few weeks. I'm working on the situation, chris... and really wishing it had just worked the way I had wanted it to the first time.
