The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

The BadI came home from work today and my front door was left wide open. I live in a very busy area here in New York, so needless to say, having my door left wide open for anyone that might want to enter pisses me off completely. I know who did it, that is not really the reason I am upset. It is not like I was robbed and someone stole everything ( Read more... )

Oh I was SO like you as a kid, only difference was my folks wouldn't let me read late so I had to do the thing where you light a torch under the covers and hope they don't come to check.

I love books and adore reading but haven't collected anything valuable other than some nice Lord of the Rings books. I pass on chick-lit but keep just about everything else.

As someone who had virtually everything she has worked for stolen I can understand where you're coming from. Difference was, my property was stolen by my family who (thankfully) had no idea how much the books were worth. (note to self: never ask family to store the entire contents of your house while you emigrate). Change the locks, definatly...and it might be worth considering putting the really valuable stuff in a safe deposit.

As for the holiday, book yourself some time away, somewhere with a shore and all inclusive food/drink. Take your laptop and a change of shorts and do as the mood takes you. That's what I see you doing. Talking from experience, SJM needs a couple of days to wind down into a holiday so try for 10/14 days if you can.

I love to read, or at least used to before I started to write, then readin became taboo.. I do not read anything new.. because I do not want my ideas tainted... you know what I mean?

I have many thing worth a great deal... because I have always been into that, and heck the store I owned was all about that, so I have tons from the store....

I can't wait to take some time away... I want to be treated like a star... live the day just for the day.. with nothing to do and everything I want.. capable.... I am willing to spend... and for some odd reason... I have a feeling... I don't know why... but I do have a feeling... this will be my only chance....
