Yesterday I was not fit for human interaction. I was crying at everything and very easily irritated - just plain not fun to be around. Wheeeee. I was so stressed out I thought I might implode. But I think I've got it all worked out now. Between working at the museum and the tax office, and visiting my boyfriend who's getting deployed to Iraq in a few weeks, it's going to be a really, really busy couple of weeks.
On the good side, my blanket is now at the Scarf Stage, and I made Toll House pan cookies which turned out really well. I also finished reading Desolation Road, which was, um... interesting. I really WANTED to like it, because Bryon thinks it's so great, but it's just the weirdest book. I will give it another chance someday. Now that I know what to expect I might enjoy it more. So anyway... now I'm on to Prentice Alvin, which is the third Alvin Maker book by Orson Scott Card. They aren't my favorite books of all time or anything, but I can't put them down! They can really screw up your view of American history too... makes me want to go read up on what REALLY happened with Tecumseh and the Prophet. Just to get it straight.
