Time for a quickie

Posted on by

Listening to:
Crash Test Dummies, Ghosts That Haunt Me

For crying out loud, why didn’t someone TELL me that the Crash Test Dummies were FUN? Because when all I had to go on was “Mmmm mmmm mmmm mmmm”, uh, that wasn’t really screaming “fun” to me.

Reading:
Good Omens

Tee hee. 🙂

Watching:
(on DVD) Northern Exposure

Only the first two episodes so far. Hurrah for Netflix!

(on television) The West Wing

I think I’m in a minority, but I thoroughly enjoyed the “live debate” format of Sunday’s episode.

Writing:
Ummm…I’m not doing so great on my NaNo project. I’m only just over 5000 words. I’m feeling discouraged about the direction of my story. Or rather, the fact that it has none.

In positive writing news, though, I finished the rewrite of a story that I want to submit to WW. Anyone interested in reading it can contact me. 🙂

  1. Ooh I’ll read. I definietly want you to publish there again. Get that laptop!

    Anyway, I also have Good Omens, whic I’ve started like 4 times and could never get into. I like both authors so I don’t know what the problem is. My current read is Pratchett’s “Thud.”

  2. I thoroughly enjoyed the “West Wing” live debate, too :). I admit I hadn’t watched the show in quite some time, but I was fascinated by the new gimmick, so I checked it out. It was fun.

  3. I’m watching Lost on my new iBook right now.

    The other day the FedEx guy dropped off a new iBook at my house instead of my neighbor’s who ordered it.

    whoo hoo! Free laptop!

  4. The Crash Test Dummies, unfortunately, become less fun as time goes on. The Ghosts That Haunt Me is as good as it gets, God Shuffled His Feet is fair to middlin’, and A Worm’s Life has a few sparks but that’s pretty much it.

    After that (although I haven’t heard the new album, where all the original folks get back together, apparently), it’s just Brad Roberts without any quality filters to keep him honest. Ever since he moved to New York (the whole band hails out of Winnipeg), CTD music has gone downhill faster than a lubed-up thing in a greasy place.
