I am 2/3's of the way through breaking dawn, the last book in the Twighlight Saga by Stephanie Meyer. OMG. Really, I got online so I could put the book down and go to bed, otherwise it would be a straight read through. I started Bad Monkeys by Matt Ruff yesterday and finished it this morning with my coffee. It was compelling, but it's so twisty at the end, I'm not sure how I feel about it. I think I may force it on my brother. It shouldn't be too hard, it has a positive quote from Christopher Moore on it.
So, we went to the library, where no one had snatched up breaking dawn yet. It was already 90 degrees when I was drinking coffee at 9, so we tryed to get out quick. We fed the ducks all our bread heals and stale bread from the week. I like to buy the fancy stuff when they put on discount for .99, and sometimes we don't eat it all before it goes. I don't think the ducks, or the fish, or the ravens care about one little green spot.
Since I got my birthday money from my grandfather yesterday, we then went to Half Price where I spent some of my money on 3 books. A Phillip K Dick that I haven't read before, Waifs and Strays by Charles de Lint, and Deffinatly Dead by Charlaine Harris (so I am only 2 behind in having a full hard back collection of Sookie Stackhouses). I was really disappointed that the Douglas Adams that was there a few weeks ago was gone. It had both Dirk Gently books in one HB volume. D got a haloween joke book, and S got a couple of those kiddy paperbooks that are $1 each. Then I spent the rest of my money on chicken for lunch. I would have rather gone to get Mongolian beef, but I was too hungrey to wait, and so were the kids. We were hot and cranky by the time we got home.
I should have passed cash to Mom and gotten her to get me a roll of mylar through her library. I want to mylar my books. They're just better that way.
Tomorrow-Laundry.
