Random stuff
Jul. 25th, 2003 12:24 pmAm staying home today, because now that I'm free-lance I can slack off if I want to. Sort of. Actually, it's 'cause I'm feeling kinda sick, although better now that I've rested and am no longer in the ulcer-producing presence of the Paternal Unit.
Repeat to self: he really means well, he really means well...
Will have to work my proverbial arse off to catch up next week, but what can you do? I figure better one day to recover than a week after puking blood, right? Don't want a repeat performance of January, no siree Bob.
The problem? I'm kinda bored. I realised I'm missing a novel in the Katharine Kerr series that![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
curtana so generously gave me a while back, the one right before the last one, which means I have to wait until I have money to finish the series. *grr* *frustration* I was looking forward to spending the afternoon reading those last two books.
I *do* have a $5 gift certificate from Indigo Books, which means I'd only have to pay two or three dollars for the book, but I still shouldn't be spending money at all. Yesterday I was *very* bad and bought myself a purple pen (my other one developed a fatal leak and I had to throw it out) as well as a soft ice cream cone. Total: $4.70 that I shouldn't really have spent.
*sigh*
When did my life become so pathetic that I have to worry about amounts less than $5?
I think I'll go hunt down the last posts to Bluebook and post one of my own. Then if I still feel like chewing off my own fingertips, I may go splurge on that book after all.
