Not finishing the book that I was supposed to read for tomorrow - typical.
Just finished making a dessert that involves half a bag of oreos, a can of fudge, 2/3 of half a gallon of vanilla ice cream, and most of a container of cool whip. It might be lethal.
Received a book in the mail today (not that I should be buying any), and decided to read it while the ice cream was melting - hence the reason I didn't finish my homework, but I blame the post office. If they just would have kept that other book one more day.
Oh, Faulkner by the way. I did start a Soldiers' Pay. The beginning is seriously hilarious.
And finally whilst stating random things about books - the one that I lost on the plane, remember that? - yeah, well I finally got the replacement copy in today (which is actually another much longer story, but not right now...) so tomorrow I can officially have my damned account unblocked. Great timing as Spring Break really means Research Papers.
Going to bed now have a great night!

A Faulkner Note
In case anyone is curious, I have decided, as of yesterday, to read 9 books by William Faulkner. In chronological order.
The first nine are:
A Soldier's Pay
Mosquitoes
Sartoris
The Sound and the Fury
As I Lay Dying
Sanctuary
Light in August
Pylon
Absalom, Absalom
As I have already read, As I Lay Dying, the 9th book I will attempt is If I Forget Thee Jerusalem (first published as Wild Palms).
Feel free to join in if you so desire... :)
