Well, today is Day 1 for me. I was crushed by the wagon. You can probably see my corpse lying in the dust.I must say that it's been worth it. I've bought 7 books from Amazon recently. I'm not going to beat myself over the money because I have my summer job lined up.
Kandice wrote: "You know she is. Perhaps this thread should be retitled "I will only buy books when I have a good excuse reason"."I totally agree. I think we should strive to be better, not perfect. As long as we cut down on how many books we buy, that should be OK...right?
I got my Amazon package with The Good Earth and Provence A-Z and I bought a larger copy of The Fouintainhead (which I believe we already decided was OK since I'm not adding to my net titles). I think I'm good for a while, although if I get another 40% off coupon or some Borders bucks...
That is so exciting! I'm so proud of you!
I got all 3 of my books back. I was so happy! I sent the girl an email and asked how her progress was. She said she'd go ahead and give them back because she was afraid she'd eventually forget. So I currently have all of my books in my possession. Yay for me.
Well, I did decide to re-read Ya-Yas in Bloom. But I made it work for my challenge because it was written in the last 5 years.I'm not sure what I'll be reading next. I've been sick and my eyes have been hurting, so I haven't done much in the way of reading, unfortunately. Don't you just hate it when you're sick and you can't read?
That'd be me. But I'll probably eat the same thing I usually eat for breakfast on Wednesdays--eggs, yogurt, and a bagel with cream cheese.The person below me is starting a new exercise regime today.
That one is really hard. I've been living with someone I hate for the past 5 months and it feels like jail. I guess I'd have to go with someone I hate though because I can come and go as I please and read and stuff. But if it was a jail like Martha went to (Camp Cupcake, wasn't it?) I'd pick the jail.Would you rather have breakfast for every meal or have dinner for every meal?
(I don't have a sister, but if I did...) I'd rather my best friend betray me because I could always get a new best friend. Unless my best friend was more sisterly to me than my actual sister...Would you rather lose your senses of taste/smell or touch?
Yes. I have a history test at 12:30 and the professor doesn't hand out study guides like the rest of the history professors.The person below me should start making breakfast because they're hungry.
I was POed with it earlier because, wouldn't you know, right after I ordered Franny and Zooey, after weeks of looking for it, I saw it in the community library.
So the awesomest thing happened today! At my local Starbucks they have a community library where you're free to take or leave a book. I found a copy of The Art of Racing in the Rain, which is on my to-buy list, that is in VERY good condition. I took it. Yay!
I bought The Good Earth and Provence A-Z. As far as the CD and movie--a Judy Garland 3-disc collection and Cruel Intentions.
I guess thoughts because dreams could be frightening.Would you rather have a third eye that doesn't actually work in the middle of your forehead or a third nipple on your forehead?
Yeah! A few of them--class, homework, and being in the same house as my roommate.The person below me is looking for a new place to live.
Since I don't have a brother, I'd rather date my best friend's brother.Would you rather be really tall (like 20 feet) or really short (like 2 inches)?
No. I had the house to myself all weekend and didn't really leave until my mom came over and we went to a couple of stores.The person below me did something exciting over the weekend.
I guess I'd rather be a vegan, although I'd probably end up killing myself. It would definitely open my eyes to how dependent I am on animal products, not to mention send me to the poor house for having to buy vegan/soy food. But I just can't stomach the thought of the maggots...Would you rather have a stomach bug or a migraine?
Hmmmm...I guess potato because there are a lot of way to have potatoes.Would you rather give up beef or chicken (please, no vegetarian explanations about how either one is treated; it's strictly a matter of preference)
Summer school and go to a Yankees game with my dad (although I'm not sure where we'll go to see the game since we're from Oklahoma).Tell me two nice things you have done for someone recently...
I am totally a morning person. It's weird though because I'm also a night person. My peak hours are from like 8 at night until 2 in the afternoon. So, from 2-7 pm, I'm quite worthless.The person below me had a nice, quiet, peaceful weekend.
