HAPPY TUESDAY

I’m currently reading EJD’s Gideon Quadogy (Aye no it snot a werd): Sleeping With…Waking With…Dying For…Resurrecting…
I’d been finished with Sleeping With Enemies days before Waking With Strangers would come and I needed more EJD, but instead of re-reading something of his, I decided get reacquainted with Nina Foxx literature. I’ve started following her on Twitter, have friended her on FB, joined her blog (which I know why she doesn’t post to often-busy woman is starting a shoe line for me, I mean working women) and realized I’d read one of her early novels. Couldn’t remember how it went so I figured since I’m all up in her business, I need to again get familiar with her literary work. (It’s relative, stay with me… EJD is why I started following her on Twitter, and so on, yada yada yada) I’d not yet officially become his unofficial #1 fan when I read mention of him in NF’s Get Some Love, but she had his name and the woman’s name who got me reading novels at all (Jackie Collins), right there in the same sentence, describing my reading habits as they were forming back then. I plan to read more from her over Spring Break. Anyway, upon finishing her book and ready to continue in the series of Gideon, book #3 came before book #2, and then we got a mailman who must’ve been driving a short yellow mail truck one day because in all my 5 ½ years of living at the same address my mail delivery person has always brought to my door anything that wouldn’t fit into my box. BUT NOOOOOOO Not this time when I was so anxious for something. The second book came in the mail but got taken to the property management office instead of brought to my door, FOR ME to have to go and pick up. The flippin’ nerve of this person who gets a regular check from the Unbelievably Stupid Postal Service and has great benefits to leave it to me to have to go past my mailbox to the leasing office and pick up my books when he rolled that little short yellow mail truck right past my unit!!! Don’t they know that I don’t go back to work and school until January 11th and I need to remain as leisurely as possible until that time??? I needed my pleasure reading brought to my door! With all due respect, I’m sure it was time for him to be off and he didn’t feel like trying to find my door after having been lost in my community (I saw him drive around 3x) because they let Forrest, Forrest Gump’s dumb clone assign addresses to the mailboxes that weren’t closest to the building to which they belonged, but hey, I’m a comedy writer so today he’s in the short yellow mail truck. NOW, I don’t like going to the office, (could be something to due w/early childhood memories, I don’t know,) but I did go today… and finally, I now have all four of the books and I have to read them all before January 11^th because after that all I’ll have time to read are scripts/monologues for performances/auditions. I should be halfway through #2 before taking Jalen to school. Since we walk I’m taking the book with me to read on the way back home and going straight to the fitness room and get on the elliptical to continue reading it.
That’s all for now but come back next time. I may talk about the beautiful new pots & pans I bought myself for Christmas, that are going to collect dust sitting on my stove. They’re so pretty I don’t want to hide them in cabinets, but these days I’m really not fond of the room with the big hot thing in it.
Oh, and I had some Chicken Wings on Monday night. I’d been wanting some all year. I pity the fool that tries to come between me and my Chicken Wings! (Growl, snarl, bark, BITE)
