orangerfulMy Eddie Izzard gathering is tonight!!! I'm so excited! I hope all goes well. I just can't wait to laugh. Eddie is always fun to watch with new people. I just hope someone speaks french!
It's relatively quiet at Provinces today. Everyone is on the computers. Time is going VERY SLOWLY. I brought a peach to eat on my 15 minute break, my tummy is all rumbly. I finished Secrets of the Jedi this morning while eating my apple jacks. Yes, I read HBP the rest of the day, but I have been so insanely close to the end of that book for so long now, I just wanted to return it! Plus I have 6 items on hold right now that I need to pick out (though 2 of them are just the RotS picture books I ordered back in May). Volume 2 of Y the last man finally came in!!! I've had Vol 3 forever, I was worried I'd have to return it before 2 showed up! I shall be picking that up tomorrow.
Babysitting last night went well. I managed to find a copy of Clone Wars at Crofton, so we watched that. I think they enjoyed it. It really is a good vegging out thing to watch, all action, no plot. haha. Then we went online and printed out "how to draw" star wars stuff from starwars.com. Skylor drew a General Greivous and an Obi-Wan. Snowden colored in Padme. We read a little bit of the first HP, which Skylor has just started reading with his mom. Well, I read at him. I think he pretty much spaced out. Good times. I was so tired when I got home, I ate a little bit of dinner then passed out.
and now I'm here. Watching the clock. Is it time to go sooooon?

Re: wow, good post
Date: 2005-07-26 05:13 pm (UTC)Anyway, no luck yet, but that's mostly my fault as I keep forgetting the comic shop doesn't open until 12 and I end up being "in the area" at 11 and just having to drive home. I have a bad feeling this will be a Trade Paperback purchase. I'm not giving up yet.
