One fantasy might not be another's

2008-04-11

I am seething. Or I was.

I went to my favorite department store, Gordman's and found nothing to wear. I don't know whats up with that store. It just irks me.

Then I went to Michaels and they were out of the yarn I needed to finish a hat.

Oh I was seeeeeeething....mad. For a while anyway.

Maybe that's not completely it. I'm a bit upset with Josh too who seems to be in another world when it comes to all this stuff.

We aren't going. You have to have tickets and there aren't anymore. He and his big idea about not going and then we are going and now we're not.

He's all, "Baby..baby..I'll make it up to you.."

"Yeah, right."

I'm just going to watch Wrist Cutters a Love Story and forget about it.

I started Black Ships. Its really good. Its not like an other adult fantasy I've ever read. I like Tanitha Lee's young adult fantasies, but not her adult one. She makes most of her main female chracters real bitches to be reckoned with. But Black Ships is almost a coming of age story..how this girl becomes an oracle and stuff. It has a more historical sense to it, kind of like Cynthia Voight and her Jackaroo series. Funny, none summer I read her book and girl with a pearl ear ring. They both had the same cover. Actually, I liked Voights story better because the girl was really strong, but not over the top.

I've always wanted to write a fantasy but never gotten very far into one. I have tried a couple of times, but somehow get lost in where I'm going. I do like enid's eyes, but that writer doesn't write much anymore on that story.

Well, I will survive the weekend. I hope. Its raining ice out. Its cold and miserable. Thank God, someone put some soup on in the crock pot.

tell me a story
