* Voting today. The Feminist Initiative has my vote, their first name should have a fraction of a chance of making it since her followers (middle-class lefties and scattered names from the intelligentsia) do matter and they do vote. She was the leader of the Left Wing Party before, I've voted for her ever since I turned 18.
* Bought books for eh, summer reading. Not that I'll actually have any time off (I switch jobs just in the middle of the summer) but I can spend hours on the balcony reading anyway. So here's the Summer Reading List:
My sister, my love - Joyce Carol Oates
Black Swan Green - David Mitchell
Eat the Document - Diana Spiotta
PopCo - Scarlett Thomas (her The End of Mr Y is one of my best reads ever.)
The Little Stranger - Sarah Waters
The Lake of Dead Languages - Carol Goodman
I'm getting some translated paperbacks, too, I'm sure. The plan was to get a haircut but then the English Bookshop had a sale and then I found out Sims 3 was released and now I have long, straggly hair and lots of entertainment.
