Is it just me, or did this seem like the longest work week on record? Maybe it's because Tuesday was the most depressing day of the year, although it didn't seem worse than any other day to me.
I don't have a lot planned for the weekend. I'm about halfway through Oryx and Crake, which was recommended by a couple of people after I asked for book suggestions a week or so ago.
On Sunday, I've offered to go see King Kong with my stepmother, who rarely gets a break from caring for her 96-year-old mother.
So basically, things aren't too exciting in the Average Jane household at present. Let's hope next week is a little livelier.
What a coincidence! This was the second worst week of my entire life! And depressing! Who knew I'd end up being part of a statistic.

yeah. last week sucked.
oryx and crake was pretty good, although i remember being a bit befuddled by the ending.

dr. dave - I wish I knew how good Oryx and Crake is, but the copy I bought is defective. Where Chaper 9 should be, it jumps back to page 114 for a long section, then picks back up near the end. I'm taking it back to the store as soon as they open in the hope that their other copies were printed normally.
