howeirdTwo grumbles tonight.
First grumble: my job is now beginning to ignore the 8-hour day. That's fine if they send me on-site somewhere, but when it interferes with Monday Night Football...
Second grumble: Now that I am thoroughly hooked on The Dark Tower series by Stephen King, and am well into Book 3, I discover that books 4-7 were never published in paperback. I don't do hardcovers, and the prices they want for CD and audio are outrageous. And I'd rather read than be read to, anyway. And no, I'm not about to ruin a library book - reading is what I do at meal times, and anything I read will end up wearing a bit of lunch.

Date: 2004-11-30 12:38 pm (UTC)No worries, I'll read something else for the next couple of months, and find a used one later in the winter. I've got a David Brin book sitting on the back seat which I haven't touched yet, and there are still some Ruth Rendell mysteries I haven't read yet. And i'm only halfway through Sons of the Profits which I have been putting off since 9th grade.
