Books and Earplugs.
So I've taken to wearing ear plugs when I sleep because my new neighbors gave the bedroom above my head to whichever family member finds it okay to blast crappy ghetto rap or TV almost all hours of the day.
Also, I didn't get a full night's sleep last night because of the crappy book that I'd gotten an advanced readers edition of from Wondercon (from the booth I bought the latest Christopher Moore book from), then handed off to my mom because it really didn't appeal to me when I gave it a chance with the first few pages. Well, my mother inhaled the thing and insisted it really did get better after the weak first chapter, so bored the other day I decided to give it another go. Yeah, she was right, it did get better, but I still didn't really like it. Among other reasons, the protagonist just really really sucked, and I couldn't identify with her at all. She was always screwing things up, she didn't really do much of anything to show the power people in the book kept insisting she had. At any rate, despite my great annoyance with it, I ended up reading from when I went to bed (before 2a) 'til the sun was coming up (6a when I noticed it and had put the book down finished).
I should probably put the book into my GoodReads account, and mark it as unliked and post a review. *shrugs* I don't know. It kinda speaks poorly that the part I liked best was the protagonist having the sex with her vampire boyfriend and having false vampire teeth and bites him despite the drama llama being the relationship between her and her roommate, and her roommate and her boyfriend. *shrugs*
