Reading
So, I'm re-reading Fionavar again. I get into it about once every 6 or 7 years, it seems. I had forgotten what a kick in the gut it is, and it is kicking my ass. I had planned to take Thursday off work this week. Much to do, including taxes, banking, haircut, band promo, etc...but I think one of the things I REALLY need to do is to finish these damn books!
Why? Because reading it at night before bed is ruining my week. I usually lay down about 11 or 11:30, depending on who's on the Daily Show, and plan to read for about a half hour. That's the plan. Instead, I find myself awake at 1:30, completely emotionally wrung out and in no state to get any good, untroubled, dreamless sleep anyway.
So Thursday, I burn through The Longest Road (and a handkerchief or two...), and set it aside for another 6-7 years. Might have to cleanse my palate with cartoons :)
