stoopbeckGah. Urg. Bleah.
What I did today:
-Slept until 10:30 [ah, the extravagance!]
-Started "Jennifer Government," but I had to put it down... a combination of my brother, a violent headache, and barking dogs kept me from concentrating on it
-Waited for the mailman to bring my Stargate DVDs. They're coming from China, but apparently not today. :,
-Watched the Stargate movie [wow, the rare case in which the show is worlds better than the movie it came from... not that the movie reeked or anything... it was a wee bit too Speilburg-y in that most scenes had too much sand or fog or some such thing so that you had to squint to make sense of what you saw, plus I prefer the actors on the show to the actors on the movie. Mmm, Michael Shanks and RDA, how I missed you today.]
-Felt ill and weak, but got to lie around all day! Yay!
-Blew a hundred bucks on a good sewing machine... I know in the long run it will make me happy, but right now I'm too busy thinking about all the books I could have bought... all the DVDs...
-Finished "Jennifer Government," which left me pleasantly surprised. Very good, and all too plausible. Now I must search out other works by the author... Many thanks go out to Minty, because I had despaired of ever again reading a book that would actually keep me interested. I lurv ya! *huggles*

Date: 2004-12-31 05:55 am (UTC)That... would be awesome. And why is it that no one can make a good sci-fi movie out of an excellent sci-fi book? I wish to know. I also wish to know how he can stand someone else adapting his book! I'd probably blow a gasket were I in his position...
Dude, you finished it in one day?! While sick?!
Ahh... but it was such a good book! And I had nothing else to do! And it helped me keep my mind off of being all icky and sick! Many thanks!
And wow... my writing gets all weird and choppy and kinda English-as-a-second-language-sounding when I'm sick... :p
