Well, you probably have no idea what the subject refers to so i will explain. Elizabeth Moon wrote a 5 book series, you can find them listed at my Good Reads account at http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/823353
Well, here is the funny part. I read the first book and then by mistake read the 4th book next and didn't realize it (even though i got a bit confused as i went past half that book) until it was too late.
So, i read the books in this sequence: 1,4,2,3,5!
Duane didn't understand why after reading the 4th book i didn't just go to the last one. I'm just the kind of reader that wants the whole story. Thus i read the 2 books i had mistakenly skipped to fill in some stuff i didn'd understand in the 4th book and then today i finished the 5th (which i had started reading yesterday).
If you like action, adventure, mystery, drama, espionage, sci fi and a bit of humor then Vatta's War is the right series of books you may want to check out.
The books improved my weekend. Yesterday after the library closed at 5PM i was going to the nearby McDonalds (one i found even closer than the one i usually go to) to use their wifi when i spotted the bus to donate blood.
I figured enough time had passed since i had given blood last, so i locked my bike and went inside. No tshirt this time, but i did get a movie ticket and a very flirty nurse, heh.
Not wanting to wait, i went to the movie teather which was around the corner and decided to go see "Atonement" and it was excellent. No wonder it's up for a few academy awards. I highly recommend it, it's a good romantic movie from WW2.
I had a misunderstanding with a good friend, but all seems to be cool now, no need to mention a name, but much love to my dear friend =D
My friend Liz, who i recently got back in touch with has had some health problem and i'm worried for her.
There are times when i hate the situation i'm in, not because of me, but because i can't help friends when i want to.
I can only ask god to help my friends right now, in time i will once again be able to reach out in person and give someone a hand.
Derr is not back still. Yeah, i'm worried and my right hand is recovering faster still but i'll be wearing the splint for a bit longer.
I've spent the day at the library, and watched 2 Anime DVD's they had. "Patlabor: The Movie" and "Patlabor 2: The Movie". It was entertaining, even though one was almost 20 years old (from 1989).
I will make another post to explain a rekindled friendship which will lead me to share the history of my marriage. But not today.
Today i start reading "From the Corner of his Eye" by Dean Koontz, a book recommended to me by Duane. It's a suspense thriller, a book genre which i have (to my recollection) never tried.
That's all for now.
