I've been buying books off ebay. I've won 4 so far - mainly because no one else wants them. Ellery Queen rocks. The stuff from the 40s and 50s is the best, but I'll take anything I can get my hands on. I found two of them in a used bookstore in Burlington - other than that the only place I can find them is on ebay. Which is ok, cause they're selling for way cheap.
I've been spackling. Cracks in the paint in my living room ceiling. Not fun. The guy at the hardware store said I didn't need drywall tape, so I didn't buy any. Get home with the putty knife and start putting the shit on the ceiling, and it's not fucking working all that great. Would have been a lot easier if I had the fucking drywall tape. Look a lot better, too. Serves me right for listening to the guy. So now I have to go back to the hardware store and get the tape so I can fix the rest of the ceiling. And I have to get some more ceiling paint. I just hope it blends in with the rest of the ceiling so I don't have to paint the whole fucking thing, just the spackled spots. And I have to paint over the water stains.... Fun stuff. Keeps me busy. Slightly.
I hate the post office. They aren't delivering my movies fast enough. When it says one day mail, and the place it's coming from is a 45 minute drive from my house, why the FUCK does it take THREE FUCKING DAYS to get here? And I would never be belligerent, so don't even think it. I said don't, biotch!
It is FREEZING in my room. It's got to be in the negatives out there. Was last night. Oh, North Carolina, i can't wait.

When do you think you'll leave? if you do you'll have to share tales of warm weather with me because to survive my 20th winter up here I need to know that the rest of the world is warm.
