One more day left until yet another long weekend :) I love having the vacation time but I'd also love to have the quiet time. This also throws my routine for work so I'm all out of sorts until I'm back in a regular routine.
A note to my roommate's cat. You're cuteness decreases by approximately 87% when you wake me up 25 minutes before my alarm goes off (this is 5:50 am) by purring beside my head and poking me in the head. Not my most favourite thing ever. Probably not his favourite thing ever now either as this results in him being pushed off of the bed.
Oh and a friend at work told me that WalMart was having a massive DVD sale (box sets 2 for $30!) so I went to check that one out by the WalMart nearest to me didn't have anything good really. I picked up The Craft and Center Stage both on sale though because those will be fun :) I was going to watch Center Stage tonight but it got too late, perhaps tomorrow night when I can stay up as late as I want to :)
Then I decided to walk up the road a bit to Chapters to spend my giftcard :) I bought Hannibal Rising by Thomas Harris. I'm curious to read it before the movie is out and I have a soft spot for the Hannibal character... I also spent almost an hour wandering the store. One of the things I discovered to my absolute delight was that Five Little Peppers and How They Grew has been rereleased! I love that book, it was one of the dear dear ones from my childhood that I've read and reread over and over. I wonder if this means they'll put out the rest of the series? I had a moment of rapture when I saw that book was still around for kids to read :)
I'm actually almost through Little Women :) However I'm almost to the point where I cannot safely read it in transit (Beth) so I think I shall leave that one at home tomorrow and choose something else for the bus ride.
And on that bookish note I'm off to bed :)
