Hello, LiveJournal.

It is true that my plans, as such, have faltered, all over the place, so much they almost can't be charted anymore, so I just have to make up some new ones and try to chart new territory.

Observing a documentary about the presidential candidates I noticed that in comparison all of my grandfathers have either passed away and/or ( Read more... )

To be honest, I am fighting off a cold, but also I am excited about my upcoming project. ^_^ I'll come back in 15 minutes to talk about it - but I decided 5 minutes later it was nothing new.

NHK says that the number of students completing master's degrees (in China) outnumbers the students completing bachelor's degrees according to the movie I have ( Read more... )

As if staring at that library holdlist would make it go any faster!

I don't think that requesting fewer items would speed the processing pace at all because of the number of librarians processing these requests on the other end doesn't change. I am waiting on 4 items. Right now it says the book that the library's little book club is reading is "in ( Read more... )

Eventually I will have to become more social.

(At the moment I am not.)

Honestly, I am eager to read the book I ordered - oh, but Amazon said that all the orders I made had been dispatched, and it's true I've got the Defoe now. It's over on the other side of the table.

I suppose that is what I meant after all.

My email said that China just ended ( Read more... )

And this audiobook I am listening to is repeating what I have heard to always be truthful. Truthfully happy, I suppose. Well, it is also saying a lot of other stuff but that is what stuck most in my mind. It is mentioning a lot of other things that I know I have tags for but I don't know how to make that into something meaningful for you to read, ( Read more... )

It is called "Bare Branches."

It says, the arrival date is "Wednesday, October 9 - Friday, October 25" which is a 16 day window O_o

The order # is 12-7896532-4897006.

It was not very expensive, and I want to be more knowledgeable.

So 25 October is 33 days from today, but the other date is 17 days away!

And Cora is going to be published, too. The ( Read more... )

I just read of it in my library's copy of "Moll Flanders."

I think it's a kind of fabric and that it's coarse, but I'm not sure...

Wikipedia says it is a high-quality wool yarn.

I stand corrected, then.

It makes me think of that orchestra music I didn't actually play but almost did, that Mendelssohn not-4th symphony.

I struggled over that 4th ( Read more... )

I just noticed when I had been commenting to my father about some kind of gimmick that Cambridge is putting on to show off for n00bs tomorrow that I might be using an improper pronoun.

But then again, I might just be putting on airs, especially if I have not paid every term balance before it starts.

I might just be that guy from Pallet Town with 6 ( Read more... )

Dollar stores, according to the article I just read, have been struggling in comparison with the other places out there such as Walmart (and it left out Amazon).

Also, some woman was set aflame by an ex, which is a bit more startling.

I am going to fly off soon enough to the library when it opens in about half an hour. I have some holds to pick up ( Read more... )

Today, I was alerted that the medic alert company wanted me to send it an alert signal to make sure the system worked.

Personally I find it annoying and unnecessary, so I have refused to do such a thing. I have always phoned 911 directly when I needed assistance - and only when I genuinely needed help, such as when my mother was having difficulties ( Read more... )
