Today I thought about cracking open an alcoholic beverage before noon. BEFORE NOON! I'm not a drinker, so you know what kind of day I'm having. But I don't feel like complaining, so I'm only going to say this:

LOL... reading this brought back a memory of my biggest need-a-drink-before-noon day. It was a BAD one, back when I was in the army and a lot of the days were bad. That one though... it was the worst. In fact, it was the ONLY day in the military in which I desperately needed to drink by 9am. We all have them on occasion... luckily, I can say it's been long enough that when I look back on it now I just laugh. I hope laughter can happen eventually for you as well.
I think I've said before that I'll read just about anything (and really, I mean anything ). This year, however, I'm trying to challenge myself by reading more nonfiction and literary works, while still sprinkling in YA, women's fiction, even some juvenile books I've neglected to read ( Because of Winn-Dixie anyone?). I just finished up James Baldwin's The Fire Next Time so I thought I'd take a step back and move over to my YA shelf, to give myself a break from the literary. What had I picked up at the library the last time I went? I asked myself as I moved toward the bookshelf in the living room. My hand picked up The Detour , by S. A. Bodeen. I'd never heard of that author before, but the dust jacket led me to believe that The Detour would read much like Misery , by Stephen King. My first thought? Stephen King already wrote that story and wrote it well. My second thought? Maybe there's something different inside the book of which I'm not ...
I am suspiciously silent today. Which means this could be the calm before the storm; Before the torrent of a very long post. Then again, It might not. Stay tuned.
