Neglect

I know I have really been neglecting this whole project thing, but I have made steady progress here and there. I don't think I am too far behind.

I was all excited when I finished Rebecca because I was going to post my first 20 books, then I realized I never finished The Italian Secretary by Caleb Carr, so I have only read 18 books. I am going to post them anyway just to catch up.

And then I open the door and go to the dining-room, where he is sitting waiting for me at a table, and I think how in that moment I have aged, and passed on, how I have advanced one step towards and unknown destiny. Rebecca- Daphne du Maurier.

I enjoyed this book a lot, it was creepy and neurotic, and I like that.

Other things are going well, school has been smooth sailing so far, but now the assignments are starting to roll in. I do have the insufferable group projects to contend with again, but so far, my group seems pretty good. Hallelujah.

One of my issues lately has been my dog. Well, after she got better from the nasty sickness this summer, she got a hellacious ear infection. (she smelled liked feet.) And during the exam they discovered that her little heart murmur is now a big heart murmur and we have to get a chest x-ray to look at her ticker. I am getting the x-rays in the next several months. She has been coughing which isn't a great sign. I love my pup, I don't know what I would do with out her.

My health has been better. I am a walking pharmacy.

I am trying to stay positive though because God knows, things have been a lot worse. I love my fella, my pooch, my apartment and all my new accouterments. (thank you financial aid shopping sprees.)

I am super duper behind, but no fear my fans, I am in the middle of a bunch of books so it will seem like I am real behind then I will finish 5 in a week. It works like that for me. I have my bus book, my bed book, my too heavy to carry around book, the pool book...you get the idea.
Thanks for being patient. I have been horrible entertainment for you lately.
