I was up until 3:45 copy editing the first summer issue of The Maneater last night, so hopefully I'll get paid enough for my efforts. I completely understand, though, because they're understaffed, and it was something to do. Considering I'm a bum without a job, I had no excuse to turn down an opportunity to earn money.
Hopefully this is the start of updating regularly every day. I'm getting excited again. I'd forgotten how much I love journaling. It's a nice release and makes the time pass.
Going to the Columbia Public Library to procure a library card and a lifetime's worth of books. My list just keeps growing, but I figure getting them all at once would 1) not be allowed and 2) be unwise. I'm thinking three or four at a time. I can't wait to lose myself in books again. Another welcome escape.
Sayeed comes on Friday, which isn't soon enough. I'm unhealthily addicted to his presence. He makes me feel at ease, and I love our dynamic. We say what we feel and we're okay with that, even if it hurts sometimes. I miss him.
I finished Eclipse this morning. Pretty bittersweet, though I still hold to my claim that those books are poorly written and slightly melodramatic. Well, at least Bella is. I can't stand Stephanie Meyers' girl characters - aside from Alice. And I find myself actually feeling terrible for Jacob. It isn't fair. With Edward around, he doesn't have a chance. Not that Edward is any less delicious. I wish Jude Law was young enough to play him in the movie. :sigh: Wow, I'm a loser. The movie looks even worse than the books, at least writing-wise. Well, and acting-wise. Oh, and production-wise. Okay, just everything-wise.
Must dash off to shower. Books, here I come!
