Busy busy

I think the work is starting to add up (or doing a close yesterday just wrecked the rhythm I'd gotten into). I feel pretty tired right now. Harble arble.

I gave in my notice at Starbucks today. (I can't just say "work" now, I have to specify which one! How weird.) I'd planned on giving one week's notice, but I hadn't realised the week after's schedule had been done as well, so I re-wrote the letter and gave two weeks' notice. Besides, the week after I get a Sunday off!

Excitement.

So my last shift should be on the 9th of August. Then I'll do my work for the week as a baby accountant, and hopefully I'll get to go to Canberra and visit my sister.

I wish I could drive to Canberra. But I'll probably fly, since my parents kind of need the cars. And my sister has a car anyway. Whoo!

Uni starts up again tomorrow. I feel kind of disconnected already - I can only imagine it getting worse as semester goes on. Oh well. I don't know how often I'll get to see uni people, either, since I'll leave my city job, go to Canberra, come back, J will arrive soon after, and we'll probably go travelling.

Sounds hectic. I'm tired just thinking about it.

Oh, hey, comic books. They make life good. Still waiting for the Runaways book and the Gunnerkrigg Court book. I have a whole list of stuff to read. I shall make a list.
  • Priestess of the White - Trudi Canavan (typical fantasy-type thing, I've picked it up before but never got round to it)
  • The Knight - Gene Wolfe (not the type of fantasy I normally read, but CS made me curious so I'll try it)
  • Bareback - Kit Whitfield (not fantasy, involves werewolves and a mystery - I really liked it)
  • Batman: Dark Victory (comic book)
  • Buffy Season Eight: The long way home (comic book - interesting, but not really grabbing me. Though I liked how in one of the backgrounds a slayer amongst the girls was reading Fray)
  • Neverwhere (comic book version)
  • Batgirl: Death wish (comic book)
  • Batgirl: Kicking assassins (comic book)
  • Phonogram (comic book illustrated by Jamie McKelvie, who wrote Suburban Glamour, also a comic book which I really liked)
  • Evernight - Claudia Gray (a vampire book bought on a recommendation, we shall see how it is)
It's also nice when CS lends comic books (been reading Gotham Central, which is a Batman comic told from the point of view of the detectives and police officers), and I've read a whole bunch of Hellboy comics. Yay Hellboy!

So, yeah. Nice when I don't have uni reading getting the way.

That's all I have. I miss taking photos.
