I currently have a band-aid with circus clowns wrapped around my finger, because I had to get blood drawn to see if I'm anemic. A lovely start to any day. Not. But oh well.
I'm sort of sad because I just finished reading "Dancing in My Nuddy-Pants" by Louise Rennison, and it's the last book in it's endlessly hilarious series. I'm really going to miss being able to pick it up to read every time one of my assignment books gets too boring, and being able to laugh my ass off.
Now I'll have to finish reading "When God Was A Woman" with no british humor breaks. However, even though it can be tedious sometimes, I highly recommend "When God Was A Woman" by Merlin Stone, especially to anyone interested in religion or archaeology or ancient civilizations. It takes a look at lots of things that are usually glossed over by most scholars writing on these subjects, and heaven knows that if they are ever written about, it's by males who have been raised in the Judeo-Christian tradition and can't set aside their biases, and moreover don't have any understanding of the nature of goddess worship at all. But this book has lots of fascinating tid-bits, and actually helped to clarify some points that even I wasn't entirely clear on before.
And now that I have to finish this book before the deadline, I'll never have time to write more on 'the French story' until I do. Which sucks, because I'm SO close to finishing 'the French story'! (Or as I now affectionatly call it, 'that obnoxious piece of doom and death' because every time I think I'm close to finishing, the need for another extra chapter pops up.) Oh, the joys of writing! {FEEL THE SARCASM}
My finger hurts. I should think happy thoughts. (Like Jason Isaacs dressed as Captain Hook; how amusing was that? Yes, I only just saw "Peter Pan" last week. I REALLY wish movies weren't so darn expensive at the first run theater!)
