no words

Rain, rain go away.

It's been raining constantly since I woke up hours ago. My sister is still home and is not going to school today.

I haven't spoken to X today. 

I think I'm getting hungry again. Gah. I don't feel like doing anything. Even make lunch. :-/

Oh, so yes. I finished The Carlyles. It's pretty intoxicating once you get into it. I think the characters are hot, fresh and slightly original. The way they intertwined the characters without the others knowing about them was pretty awesome. You'll see once you read it, L. I still say my favorite triplet is Baby. 

Anyways, I'm super bored now that I've finished that book. I could begin a new book, but I'm still reading two other books that I haven't finished yet. Lullaby and The Sun Also Rises. 

Maybe I should give X a call.

A few things have changed in the past few hours. 

M didn't go to work today, and the people at Ruby Tuesday are apparently angry with her. She is sick, but she was my reference and if they're angry with her, what are they going to do about me? Not hire me? Then it is definitely back to square one. 

In other news, I finished two books today. Lets see what else I can finish before I go to the library tomorrow. If I even make it to the library tomorrow. Who knows what I'll end up doing. Laying out better be one of those things, I'm telling you right now. I need to sweat out this anger I have for trying to find a job. 

Right now, the only books I have started reading are Lullaby and The Sun Also Rises. I can't decide which one I should read next tonight. Maybe I'll start a new one. Anna Karenina? Madame Bovary? 

I wish Buster didn't have any fleas.

It is awful easy to be hard-boiled about everything in the daytime, but at night it is another thing. - Chapter 4, The Sun Also Rises

I had a pretty good day today. 

Right now, I'm watching The O.C. and it's probably one of my favorite episodes of the series: The Strip, which is where Seth, Ryan, Sandy, Jimmy and Caleb go to The VEGAS! Ah, this is such a good show.

I've been reading The Sun Also Rises on and off today and I have to say, I've never read Hemingway before, but I'm really enjoying this book. I still haven't read the short story L referred for me to read. Alas.

The name of the novel is taken from the Bible, Ecclesiastes 1:5: "the sun also ariseth."

The day began with me waking up and cuddling with Buster. I took a shower and then the family and I went to the mall. I got some new clothes and a new pair of shoes. It was very exciting. New clothes! All girls love new clothes. And shoes, right?

I had a steak for dinner and it was pretty good. I also brought back some for Buster and a huge brownie, but it needed to be eaten with milk, so that's why I brought it home with me.

Julie Cooper and Kirsten's little sister Hailey are cat fighting at Julie's bachelorette party. Funny stuff, funny stuff.

Oh yes, I wanted to post a new picture that M took of me, but it was taken with a cell phone camera, and it looks a little fuzzy, but you can kind of see my hair colors.

And here it is. Buster just stretched and it was cute. 

Well, I think I'm gonna get done with this post.
