"Why should we hear about body bags and deaths? Oh, I mean, it's not relevant. So why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that?"

[ ƒ = finished reading, for more info see my booklist ]
i have ten books on hold too, mostly fiction, but some knitting books thrown in there (mostly debbie bliss’ baby books).
for the year 2005, i’ve already paid $15.10 in fines, with $2.50 still waiting to be paid. do they count for this year though? mostly they were accrued last year. ah well. i know i’ll never be able to reach the low limites of others.
you ask, is it still raining? we’ve gotten over 6 inches of rain in the past 72 hours, 2 of which were dumped on us in the past 12 hours. to keep this in context, the norm for l.a. is 2.76 inches for the whole month of january. i feel a little stir crazy – even for a water-crazy woman like myself, it is starting to get a bit ridiculous. don’t even ask about my car, ok?
