So the news is:
the book won’t be in Canada until August 31st. BOOOOO!!!! Not terribly happy about that, but I can’t do anything about it so I’ll just sneak down to the US and gaze at it fondly at the bookshelf at Barnes and Noble.
I ‘think’ I’ve figured out my whole ‘Miss Flaversham’ thing. Which is very cool for me but crazy for you because I can’t tell you any of it. Except that it’ll be good.
My sweet, darling, wonderful husband bought me a prezzie. The new Kindle. Oh I was so excited and not expecting it at all! It took me a little while to figure out how to work it, and to find the free books area, so now I have 10 books downloaded (all free and classics) so now I get to read with it. But at the moment I’m reading Harry Potter in paperback. I love that book. Not just because of the story but because it’s the first book my husband ever bought me. It was on the way to a show I had to do for Almonte Valley Players and we’d always stop in at the Mac’s Milk and get a grape crush so I could burp away my nervousness before starting. (I am amazing on stage, but before I go on? I’m a mess.) And there it was, sitting by the cash. We didn’t have very much money, but he bought it for me. It was 10$. I married well. That man knows my heart, inside and out.
Ok, I have some writing to do. Many chapters to meld but I’m up to 34,000 words! Yay!
Listening to: the clock ticking behind me. It’s making me a little crazy. Need music, I think. CBC radio?
Reading: Harry Potter, first book. And my Kindle!
Watching: tonight? So You Think You Can Dance!
Eating: crackers and brie. And a venti, soy, no water, no foam, tazo chai.
