First Post of the New Year

Hey, it's been like a month since I made post. It's the New Year now. 2009

It's been an alright year so far. Can't complain about is so far.

As you know, I have a library again. (Yay and Alleluia!) So I will make a list of the books that i got from the library:

The Minister's Daughter = finished (already return. This was the first book i checked out after it reopened.)
All-American Girl = finished (I read the whole thing in two days, I was surprised.)
Pirates!(audiobook) = currently listening to this
Al Capote Does My Shirts (A Shannon Recommendation)
The Wind Singer (I remembered someone reading a book with this name and liking it)
The Thief (So I can see what all you LRRHers are talking about)
The Rumpelstiltskin Problem

I'm reading in this new year! (Instead of ringing. ;) )

Today = A Week

Well, it's the 7th of December. So I guess this would be an exact week since my last post. Nothing much to say, I'm working a little on one of my new ideas for a story. It's an interesting tale, but I'm not comfortable telling it just now, so you'll just have to wait. ;) I'm thinking about making gifts for Christmas. Don't know what I'm going to make though.

Library Memorial

^I made this sign. :) A year from today, my public library closed down because of lack of funds. So we had a rally/funeral/memorial service for our library today. A group of people and kids march down our downtown area and up to the courthouse front steps. Reporters from the local news, radio and paper were there. The newspaper that was doing the story could send out a photographer, so I got to be the "photographer" I took pictures and I read a poem I wrote about the library closing. So I might appear on the local news, which is weird and cool at the same time. And here's the poem I wrote: Destruction of a Library World of Words, Their time is ending. On the shelves they sigh a bitter sigh. Why should people cry? Only words on paper Behind brick walls Why do I sigh, This humble cry? Why do the words mean so much to me? How can people not feel what I feel? About an old building that smells like old paste That binds together beautiful words In the arms of ancient paper Old
