My goodness there's a lot to talk about. Okays, the shorted version is as follows. Let's get this ball rolling!

1) I found a goddamn...*many curse words*...rubber marking on my goddamn...*many curse words*...vehicle when I came out of my friends' house the other day. Most of it rubbed off and it's barely discernible now but I nearly had a fit over it. Not even a note left...nothing! Nobody ever takes responsibility for their actions and it drives me absolutely insane. :crazy:

2) Still haven't gotten up to Faire but I plan on doing so either this weekend or next weekend or both. I need some turkey legggzzz! :drool:

3) Gremmi's kittens are doing well, I have to take care of them this weekend and they should be ready to go out to owners in another week or so. :D They are so super cute and I wish I could keep one but my mother is deathly allergic to cat fur so that's a no go.

4) I lost weight. :O About four pounds or so. I don't know how because I've been a lazy ass lately and have not been exercising like a good girl. Maybe I have a tapeworm. :giggle:

5) My filling...y'know, that same one...? Yeah. Decided to vacate my mouth AGAIN!!! Once more the dentist did not charge me so that made me feel a bit better about it but I'm ready to rip the damn thing out and call it a day.

6) I will not be around next week...at all. I'm going to the shore and I will most likely be cowering in the shade with nothing but a book and hope that the UV index stays sane. :fear: Well, there's no internet access down there so it looks like I'm gonna be without you guys for a full week! :cries: Don't miss me too much! :roll:

Okay, that wasn't too bad. :D Have a good week everyone!

Thanks for reading! :highfive:

Book Review: The Jungle by - Upton Sinclair: I always wanted to read this because of the fact that it's a classic and nearly everyone and their mother knows about Upton Sinclair's "The Jungle". I suppose it was not a good idea jumping from the satirical work of Vonnegut to the depressingly realistic work of Sinclair. Truly, one does not read this book for the story since Sinclair seems unable to make you feel, against your will, for the characters inside the book. I could not, for the life of me, feel much sympathy for the individual only for the masses of the early 1900s.

What is moving is the bleak, terribly real view of Chicago. The book was named well for the details it has to offer. Not only does Sinclair investigate the slaughterhouses but how every high-end, gold-lined pocket has its meandering tendrils around every corporation in the city. From buying houses, to going into saloons to drink ones sorrows away, to jail, to work and to the pain that everything eventually dishes out. There is sympathy for the millions of workers that slaved day in and day out for a few pennies to maybe buy a some food for their starving children.

I have to respect this book for what it did for the United States; open the eyes of ignorance to what was really happening in cities around the country and invoke change. But I certainly cannot read this for the connection with the characters.
