Nov. 5th, 2004 08:23 amForgot to mention that earlier this week I got asked by Alyne to head one of the dance performances we're doing on December 4th. I was really quite stunned when she put me in charge, and flattered, and a bit overwhelmed. Yeah I know ultimately it's not that big a deal or that much of a responsibility, but still. Had me beaming all day long :)
I think the flowers I received for Halloween have just about had it, it's too bad, I've loved the bright colors to look at every day while I sit at my desk.
Seems like there's a nice quiet weekend ahead, which will not come amiss. Hopefully I'll get some other projects out of the way and then I can just sit and read. I got "Runes of the Earth", the new Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever book and damn is it amazing. Reading this is like a religious experience to me, I mean I love a lot of fantasy series, but this one I happily kneel before and worship as the divine gift to literature that it is. I both want to devour it whole and take my time as it'll be years before the next one is released. I will have all of them in hardcover and paperback because I am that obsessed. So far Mr. Donaldson hasn't let me down and when it comes to the Land I don't think he ever could.
It took all my willpower to leave the book in the car last night so that I wouldn't be up until the wee hours of the morning reading it. I do not expect to be able to do the same this weekend. But I must get some errands and a drawing done first, then I can relax and curl up with some tea and my novel.
Had a bit of a bread-related fiasco last night so I need to stop at Whole Foods tonight before I drop by a friend's place for some post-election mourning and feasting. I discovered that they have the most delicious cranberry scones on the planet there and I need to get some for tonight. Oh my god do I need to get some. But I may only have one. Just one. I can well imagine just how horribly high in fat and calories those suckers are. But damn are they ever tasty.
