When it all gets too much
Aug. 6th, 2008 05:41 pmI am skipping aerobics tonight (but I went on Monday). It's absolutely chucking it down and even with an umbrella I was soaked before I was even halfway to the bus stop. Then to top it all off an idiot guy on a motorbike pelted through a puddle and splashed muddy water all over me. He must have known he'd done it because he looked back and I made gestures with my hands. Didn't stop and apologise or anything though. Wanker!
So, I'm home and in dry clothes. Ros is going to cook me dinner later and hopefully it will have stopped raining by then

Well, that wasn't the best Buffy book I've ever read but it's not the worst either. It's certainly a better version of Season 8 than the comics. LOL. It did get a bit silly at the end though with ( spoilers )
Next on the list is Finding Serenity by Jane Espensen (well, she edited it). A few familiar names in the author list including a couple that I met at Polaris last year. Should be a fun and interesting read.
