i suppose i should probably post something here to let everyone know i'm still alive. i haven't really been up to much lately. working, sleeping, and reading mostly.
i did recently break up with my boyfriend of three months. it was complicated for me, and i don't want to go into it here. suffice to say that i thought it would be better in the long run to end it now and try to stay friends. he wasn't thrilled, but i think he's coming around. i'm also starting to wonder if maybe i shouldn't just try to find a nice girl. definitely not the first time i've thought about giving up men, but every time it gets a little stronger.
right now i'm working part time for gap, inc. the peoplle i work with are really nice, and i don't dislike my job. well, that is, until someone treats me like i'm lower than dirt on the sales floor. then i'm not very pleased. i found out from the head of the property crimes division that i was in the top 10 applicants, and that i should apply again when they have more openings. i'm not that discouraged. perseverance will inevitably when the day. though, every now and again, i get a little down about it.
movies: book of eli was a lot better than i thought it would be. i was all set for it to be a lot preachier. sherlock holmes was amazing. wasn't impressed with paranormal activity, though i am curious as to the other endings. i finally saw fight club. i really liked it, but i think the experience was a little ruined by my knowing tyler durden was a figment of his imagination. be a man!! samurai school was epicly awesome. i really shouldn't expect less from tak sakaguchi. he has got to be the bruce campbell of japan. i also really liked fanboys.
books: i'm currently in the middle of thank you for smoking. i really liked the movie, so i thought i'd give the book a go. i just recently finished darkly dreaming dexter (the first book in the series. it inspired the first season of the show), and there were a few things that were completely different. made me glad i decided to finish it. i tried to get through the law of nines and found that i couldn't. i loved the sword of truth series. well, i loved it until it went to shit. i wasn't really very impressed with law of nines, and the only thing keeping me reading was the curiosity of how he was going to tie it all together and make it work. in the end, i decided that it really wasn't worth it.
i'm super-excited about the next cal leandros novel. i think it's called roadkill. i'm a die-hard fan of rob thurman. i really love her work. it comes out in march, and you may safely assume that i am counting down the days.
