'The Girl in Question'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Right now I'm jonesing for the feel of sifting sand through my toes, so although I understand the English of water shoes, I don't feel them.
Bleaching my hair with new stuff. Whose instructions didn't match the ingredients, but never mind. It's only hair. And not that much of it.
Gmail seems to have decided I shouldn't get any of the email that people also on gmail sent me for the last hour or so.
Hate that.
The new bleach is stupid and I'll have to touch up in the morning. Ah, well. Live and learn.
So, my parents just got back from their local independent bookstore, and The Book was sold out! (Theo, was that all you?) They re-ordered.
Which store? I have been trying to be patient with another local scifi type store in Cambridge where I ordered a copy and recommended they have it on the shelves (guys solution: order two copies) and their customer service, is, how you say, not so great. The dude said last week that he'd have it by the end of last week, now it's the end of this week, and I suspect that it will be actually the August release date or something and I want to dispatch Tom to a B&N but then I'll need to buy the Local Independant Bookstore copy and I think I'm really, really going to need some good reading this weekend, since I'll be at the beach and it looks like the weather will be totally shitty.
In conclusion, WANT. WANT NOW.
This was at Porter Square Books. I guess they had had three copies to start.
I just walked four blocks in the rain, with an umbrella, and I'm freaking SOAKED.
Rain = yuck. When I was in Portland on Sunday and it was POURING, we had to sit in the car for like 15 minutes to wait out a downpour.
yeah, it's kinda downpoury.
I'm on 3 hours of sleep today. seriously?!

Bah. There was a bad plane crash in Brazil - at least 189 are dead. A jet skidded off the end of a wet runway and burst into flames. Many people have been concerned about this runway, as it is very short. In fact, it was closed a while back for safety reasons (due to it being too short) but a higher court overturned this, based on the economic hardship this closing resulted in.
Well, it could turn out to be more complex than that, but still....

Oy.
