A chance to win $1000 in books from Powells? I accept! And I'm posting it here for all of you to see and take advantage of this most excellent opportunity (although I haven't yet figured out if writers get to keep rights to entries to the contest, which better be a condition of submission or I won't play). I'm posting it despite the fact that there's some pretty fabulous writers who read this journal and I don't like the thought of competing against you... because I love you all that much. I'm pretty sure that's not (just) the wine I had at dinner talking, but if this entry disappears suddenly in the next few hours it's because a shower and coffee brought me to my senses. Although if it were that easy for me to get sensible... oh, never mind. Just go look at the contest info already. And try not to make too many lists of books you'd buy as soon as you won (I'm going to go try adding up my Amazon wishlist, just out of curiosity and greed.)
Ok, so this was just too funny....
Aug. 24th, 2003 06:34 pmIt's also pretty true. I've been feeling pretty energetic lately (with the exception of Friday, when I was the Amazing Zombie Girl at work until Charlie the best waiter ever made me some crazy magic coffee-chai concoction that would've kept me hopped up all day on any other day, but instead only brought me up to normal energy levels --- I was fried because Peter and I stayed up way past my bedtime watching Amélie the night before, but I digress). I think it's because I've been getting more exercise, consistently riding my bike home the long way from work and whatnot. Oh, and did I mention I worked today? And that I have my birthday and the day afterwards off (because I traded my Friday 7 AM shift for somebody's Wednesday 7 AM)? Clearly, I should have me some birthday fun that involves staying up way too late, since I'm not going to have to get up early the next day.... but what? Oh, my life is so hard and so full of dilemmas. Okay, maybe not, but it certainly is going to be full of laundry in a bit, and after that probably dinner at Pizza Research Institute. Yum.
