the lovely bones
i just finished jane eyre and i'm ready to devour another great book. maybe it's the english in me, but i've got so much love for the bronte sisters and their lofty british love stories....but, i digress.
anyway, i saw the lovely bones movie preview and it looked decent. i figured i'd try to read that next and then go see the movie. wrong. i cannot get farther than three chapters. this is a #1 bestseller? it's painfully elementary and it hurts to read. i feel my iq dropping page by page. if anyone has read it and thinks that the book gets better, please tell me. i cannot believe what pure shit it is.

epic thirft trip

and these guys:

your hand in mine
first two pages transcribed. this will have to come along when i get a bit better. i'm learning emily haines' "crowd surf off a cliff." beautiful song. last night i had a dream that my sister and i had a flat in dun laoghaire, ireland. my room was cozy, big bed, loads of quilts, lots of dogs running about and a tiny fireplace in the corner. wish it were real. now the rain is pounding, my wine glass is full and the end of jane eyre is summoning me to bed.
