Today I applied for a customer support job at a place in the city that sells headsets. I just thought I would announce that for the benefit of the five people to whom that might bring a snicker.

Update on that 'These Twelve Particular Books In Twelve Months' meme:


1. Nausea by Jean-Paul Sartre
2. Hard-Boiled Wonderland & The End Of The World by Haruki Murakami
3. The Lost Weekend by Charles Jackson
4. The Left Hand Of Darkness by Ursula K. Le Guin
5. A Wizard Of Earthsea by Ursula K. Le Guin January!
6. The Tombs Of Atuan by Ursula K. Le Guin
7. The Farthest Shore by Ursula K. Le Guin
8. The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold
9. Ringworld by Larry Niven
10. Light by M. John Harrison
11. Steppenwolf by Hermann Hesse
12. Requiem For A Dream by Hubert Selby Jr.

This year I have also read Galatea 2.2, started A Heartbreaking Work Of Staggering Genius (I don't know if I can hack it though), caught up with Runaways, and started reading Preacher. I don't know what I would do without books. I picked up four more yesterday from the Free Books shelf, including one by Charles de Lint. I haven't read de Lint in ages. I don't know what to read next. I want to finish the Dune books. I want to dive into House Of Leaves.

Yesterday I watched The Last King Of Scotland again. I got to get in free so that's alright. Not a ridiculous fangirl or anything. Just downtown with nothing to do. That's all, I swear. (Oh, wait. I'm using this icon by fan_elune just because it's cute. Okay. Maybe a tiny bit ridiculous and fangirly. Ahem.)

confidential has started watching Battlestar, finally. He keeps sending me amusing text messages such as

'Don't let her hold the baby!'

'Kid captain is a dick'

and

'Why does nothing in the future have corners'?

Hee. Oh, to be watching a good show for the first time again. Which reminds me, I need to watch more Veronica Mars because Michael Muhney is once again made of awesome.

I heard from my friend Kim Lum today. It had been so long. I miss her when she's travelling the world, which is all the time. If I didn't have the kind of life I have, and love it, I would want the sort of life she has. Someday I will. With the travelling and the romance.

But for now I like my life. Love, even. Yes, for now I love my life.
