saved by a book

so in these days of slowness, the internet has lost a great deal of its appeal. between the dial-up, the ancient computer, and the mouse that refuses to be ungunked, i feel like i’m about to burst into flames, or at the very least, song.

and along comes a package, from Skarlet, via Amazon. this book, which i have been wanting to read for some twenty years now, and finally i can, and just in time to save me from the glacial pace of this antiquated technology.

so if you see me around a lot less for the duration of this dsl-less-ness, these are the reasons.

    That sounds like a fabulous book! I hope you’ll give us a complete review when you’ve finished…..or at least little snippets of your thoughts while you’re reading!

    I don’t even have connection problems and I am having to force myself to blog. How does a person keep going when they have no psychic energy left? I feel like if I don’t post something once in a while then nobody will come around anymore, but I also feel that once it starts to feel like work then the thrill is gone.

    Maybe I just need a break to recharge the mental batteries. Anybody have any tips, please e-mail me.

    well, yeah, sure, except — well first of all, my email has become such a source of stress. the spams and “i send you this file. i hope you will like it” crap used to download in seconds. now i spend huge amounts of time just downloading ads for viagra and copies of Klez. and that’s awful.

    plus you have to realize the computer itself is really old, the mousie is permanently gummed up, and … i’m spoiled. ok? that’s the bottom line here. i’m spoiled.

    there.
