Jason and Amanda came over last night but we didn't really do anything...sat around...i ate some sandwhiches...work today was like it was yesterday...and i assume it'll be the same tomorrow...hopefully by monday it'll be back to normal...having to use the crapy keyboards pisses me off...but i did finish reading The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien (special thanks to Amber and Jacques (happy?) for giving it to me! i always love discovering new writers...especially when they're this fucking good...) The Family Ghost should be practicing in a little while this evening...that should be nice...

i really want to read more. i've only read 'the things they carried' and 'if i die in a combat zone,' but they were both just fucking great. i thought robert would appreciate his writing, and i'm glad i was right. anyway, we're going to barnes & noble today to spend a gift card, so i think i'll pick up 'in the lake of the woods' while i'm there. yeah. cool.
