So after all this angst and madness, I went out. Drank my favorite coffee, played cards, watched the ebb and flow of the Metro crowd. It was good and got me to stop moping about the things in my life that bother me.

Drove home and I have to be careful because it is so easy to go too fast with the machine. I listened to my favorite remix of "Walking In LA" with Ice Cube and the bells, and that is a good driving song. It makes me feel good, screaming down the road. I listened to it obsessively when I stopped being so afraid of driving.

I'm better now. While I wish my family was not so depressing, and my head so difficult to manage, it's alright. I'm going to see my dad this week, and I hope he likes the books. I picked up Gaiman's American Gods and Neverwhere, Gardner's Grendel and the ever lovely Confederacy of Dunces. My father has good taste in books.

hooray Gaiman!

I think Stardust is a good starter too. It gives you a decent impression of his writing style, and it's not too hard to get through.
I started reading it at about 10pm one night before I went to bed. Around 5am, I finished it and finally went to sleep.

I didn't see a copy of that, but if he likes the Gaiman I should find it for him. I'm terribly fond of his stuff myself.
