FYI- if you’re thinking about getting some sort of eReader, go for some sort of tablet so you can just download all the apps for the different reader types and have it ALL on ONE FUCKING DEVICE. i have a Sony eReader, and the goddamn thing is useless. unless i buy books straight from Sony, it does me no good. the copy of Inheritance that is finally available to me from my library? i can’t read it on my Sony eReader. why? because IT FUCKING SUCKS. i’ve been looking forward to reading that book for [literally] years, and now that i finally have it, i can’t read it without downloading programs onto my computer… which i’m not willing to do. i don’t want to read the goddamn book at my computer. i already have a kindle app on my computer. i already have the sonly eReader library on my computer… i don’t need another goddamn reader program on my computer!

in other news, i am so tired, that i can barely think. i still have the chest crud (it’s very slowly clearing up) and my daughter still gets me up at night. i have a copy of Brandon Sanderson’s Alloy of the Law on it’s way to me,  but i’m afraid i won’t be able to crack the cover until i catch up on about 2 years worth of missed sleep. i’m trying to read The Hour I First Believed, by Wally Lamb right now… it’s a great book, but my eyes won’t focus long enough to put a serious dent in it. in a person who loves to read as much as i do, this is a very very sad thing.

and last, but not least, there’s trouble brewing on the intarwebs. once again, the internet has proven itself to be just like the real world. it has real people in it- good and bad. it has honest people and deceitful people. it has nice people and blunt people and assholes and true saints. it’s got crazies, sanes, and masters of denial. being in an online group is a real group of friends… there’s always someone who likes to cause trouble. i just hope that some day whoever is causing trouble in MY online coffee shop [aka, the place where i hang out with my besties and talk about everything] (aka Facebook Group)  leaves the group before we figure out who it is… because it makes me sad when we don’t get along. i also hate having to take a break from the group to let things calm down a bit… my online life IS my social life. i miss it when i’m gone.

<vague blogging end>

and now i’m going to go do laundry or something. i’m going to look into getting a Kindle or a Tablet, i’m going to plan a nap (that will probably never happen) and i’m going to take a break from the internet.

clearly, i am so tired i’m delirious.

ps- CHOCOLATE COVERED DOG TURDS. have you ever known anybody like that? sweet on the outside, but nothing but SHIT on the inside… in the end, not even chocolate will make a dog turd palatable.
