things.
-i baked peanut butter cup brownies today. i have been craving brownies like you wouldn't believe, but we had no eggs or butter and so brownies had to wait. but now there are brownies! hooray!
-i'm reading a john grisham book because one of my electricians loaned it to me. um, really? is he really a bestselling author? the writing is pretty terrible, you guys. and the plot is pretty fucking stupid. and the book is sexist. i feel like this book is rotting my brain just as much as crappy tv does, but my electrician keeps asking me about the book so i need to finish it! i knocked a good chunk out at work yesterday, and i have a show tomorrow night, so hopefully it will be done this weekend so i can get back to children's books, haha.
-it turns out our library doesn't have as terrible of a ya section as i thought it did- it's just kind of hidden, along with the sci-fi section- behind the dvds. ::facepalms:: but they had a handful of pike books, which means it is an acceptable section. (to get a gold star you have to match my library from back home and contain every pike book ever. i really doubt this will ever happen.)
-i want to have a t-shirt making party before john green gets here! in his chat the other day, he was telling us that he did an event with stephanie meyer before she was famous, with about sixty people there. he said 52 of them were wearing fake fangs and shirts that said "I ♥ EDWARD" and that nobody had an "I ♥ ALASKA" shirt and it made him sad. so: t-shirt party! who's in?
