I am currently one quaking, unhappy ball of stress. The moving, the Africa, the fact that my job has been boring me to tears and making me feel useless of late.. it’s all too much. However, the most troublesome thing to me right now is money. I have none. None. Negative, even. Moving sucks up [...]

Moving right along, I’m not as melancholy today. Although I could probably slip into it easily enough… so moving right along!

Umm… I’m not sure why I gave up on The Writing. The Boy moved last weekend and that led to stressful week for me.
Also, when I went to the used bookstore? It was gone. Empty shopspace. I’m sort of not ok with this and would rather not discuss it any further.

I’m plotting a trip to the used book store tomorrow so as to slim down my book collection a tad before the move. However, I’m always LOST in the used book store, overwhelmed by options without the structure provided by good marketing and busy pubicists.
Any suggestions for books I should keep in mind when browsing [...]
