Death

Gary Coleman died yesterday and he was forty-two. I think it was a brain hemorrhage or something, but don't quote me on that [this is me being too lazy to use Google]. Then today Dennis Hopper died and he was seventy-four and it was because of cancer. If it's true or not, it seems like there have been a lot of people I know of dying this year, and last year now that I think of it.

Oh, I finished editing that rewrite I did, and that was pretty cool. I was super happy about it, but now the original high has worn off and I'm onto trying to work out something else, as far as plot and setting are concerned.

Also, I'm kind of getting into summer mode. Mainly, all that means is lounging around because it's too hot to do anything else. Ah, summer. The heat, the humidity, the long break from school--oh wait, scratch that last one. I'm going to school year round now. I did get my schedule for next quarter though, and I've class only two days a week, so that's kind of a win in my opinion.

Back to...well, not work, but something like it.

Week In Review

Week In Review

Right now I'm getting over a sort of sickness. I'll just leave it at that it kind of sucks to be hungry when all you can handle is ginger ale. It sucks really bad.

Anyway, I'm going to recount the high and low points of the last week and half. That does make the title of this post a little misleading, but in my concept of time, it's been a week, so bear with me.

[Side note: basically none of this has to do with writing.]

So, in pluses and minuses, I shall recount the previous week or so:

+Books-A-Million was having a pretty awesome sale, and it was literally one dollar for three whole book carts, a lot of which were hardcover. I was so unbelievably happy that it bordered on ridiculous. I only went there for a magazine and came back with a miniature library.

-Stevie left the 5AGs, which I kind of saw coming, but still didn't want to happen.

+American Idol is back! Bad singers and all.

+Books-A-Million was also having a DVD sale.

+I got new video games, including one I lost in the move for GameBoy SP.

+I got a calendar for 2010.

+I got a case.

+Neil Gaiman and Amanda Palmer are getting hitched!

-I'm sick.

On the up and up, because that last minus is really kind of bumming me out at the moment, I don't have class tomorrow. So this week or so was a good week. Oh, and I totally forgot that Taboo has a season premiere, so that's definitely another plus. I'm going to go get some more ginger ale.
