Finally, sleep as evened out. I've been going to bed at roughly the same time for the last three weeks (don't worry Deirdre, being out until five in the morning didn't damage nothing, dodged that bullet :-)). I can't remember the last time I did that. Would have been nice if I could have been getting a little more sleep out of the deal, as it is I' ( Read more... )

I went out and bought American Gods today. Between what was left on my gift card, a twenty-five percent off coupon and Renee's member discount, I paid $1.05 for it. :-)

Yea, more stuff to read. And fiction stuff no less. I don't read enough of that anymore. :-(

I just got a copy of Diana Paxson's Essential Asatru and H.R. Ellis-Davidson's Gods and Myths of Northern Europe (which I have read once years ago, needs to be read again).

So that's two books off the list of things I need to get. Plus some new stuff to read. :-)

I still have about $4.50 left on the Barnes and Noble gift card. I'm still trying to ( Read more... )

Wandering around Barnes and Noble Sunday night, I realized that I have been without decent fiction to read for quite some time. Clive Barker has always been my favorite author and, while I hear that he is working on a new book and it does sound like it could be good, he hasn't put anything out in the last few years. Aside from the last few ( Read more... )

I've been without internet access the last two days, who knows why hopefully we'll have the problem worked out soon enough. I'm on Dominic's laptop right now, to check my email (which really piles up if I leave it alone for too long, gods damned chatty lists) and to post about my weekend.

First, the sleeping problems are still ongoing. Amazingly it ( Read more... )

Last night I picked up a copy of The Greeks and the Irrational with some of my birthday money. First time I saw a copy of that in the store, and as I always hear it recommended so highly, I had to pick it up.

Not that I can start reading it right away, I am now in the middle of a few other things.

Renee got a hold of a copy of Devoted to You. While I ( Read more... )

Well, my weekend to myself was good. Not a very productive one, but good nonetheless. Which is great because it just occurred to me that next weekend is the Grove's Thargelia celebration, so there will be no enjoying my anti-social solitude ( Read more... )

Hehehe, makes me happy. Three new books about Hermes, I'll be busy for a while ( Read more... )

I ended up going with Fagles' translation of the Odyssey. That cost me about $15, the rest of the money I guess I'll just drop into the box with the rest of my temple upkeep/offering funds.

I'll pick up a copy of the Iliad next time I have a spare $15.

At the beginning of August I celebrated a holiday to Hermes at which I gave him an offering of twenty dollars to be spent on a book of some sort (since that's what the focus of the holiday was). Well I still haven't bought that book yet, been a little busy you know ( Read more... )
