the killers' music...how excessively appropriate
ACK! AAAHH! ::jumping up and down:: You bluidy idiotic woman! You don't tell everyone you want them to think for themselves and then turn around and make it *extremely* clear that if they step a toe out of the freaking lines it's "Off with their heads!" Aaaaah! (And typing that is just *not* a satisfactory substitute for going into my closet and screaming at the top of my lungs, dammit.) Stupid, ridiculous, self-obsessed, lazy bint!

When my dad was in grad school, he and his friends used to have a shot of Wild Turkey every Friday to celebrate surviving another week. I'm thinking this is a very attractive concept. But it's only Sunday, which means five days to wait before alcoholic solace. Bugger.

Maybe I can bring the bottle and some matches to class on Tuesday and get a more immediately satisfactory result.

Heeheehee.

A Certain Slant of Light
I have been meaning to tell you how much I miss you, but things have been incredibly strange for me lately, very VERY strange...

However, while doing frontlist, I found something so incredibly fantastic that I feel I MUST share it with you, as it is beautifully written, and , I felt, simply beautiful. It is a book called A CERTAIN SLANT OF LIGHT. It will, oddly, be in your teen section. I loved this book almost as much as I loved NIGHT CALLS. I think you will, too.

Work is...work. I get to see our dear friend from the childrens dept. more, and that is good. I get to see our dearest Kylee every day, and that is wonderful. But I am discontent in myself these days. I have a burden I cannot unload. It is hurting me, but if I unload it, it will hurt others more. Hmmmm. Cryptic...
I'm only telling you this because I know that sometimes my writings can sound very somber, and I don't want you to worry. All things work out as they should, one way or another. You know I believe this.
your Cyrano

Re: A Certain Slant of Light
Oh, Cyrano. I am sorry. I wish I were there to give you a hug. Not that it would accomplish any unloading of your burden or resolving of the situation, but it would make me feel I were accomplishing something more than merely throwing words at you. And if there's any way throwing words my way will help, please indulge.

As for A Certain Slant of Light, I'll definitely have to read it. I caught a glimpse of it one night whilst recovering, and thought it looked interesting---especially the reference to one of the few Dickinson poems I like. But now that you've confirmed its excellence, I'll bump it to the top of my list. I've finally read the 5th Charlie Bone book...and loved it. Of course. And I can definitely see where it might be the end of the series, but I rather hope it's not. What'll I do without a window into Charlie's adventures?

Anyway, darlin', I love you and miss you and dearly hope your burden eases rather sooner than later. You know where to find me, if I can help.

Love,
Kimi
