A canvas only paint could change

I just have not been in an updating mood. Not much has happened, but I would certainly include all of the boring things, IF I wanted to update... which I don't... so why am I?

My birthday is in 13 days.
My sister's birthday is in 4.
And so on.

Despite not being up to write about EVERYTHING that has been going on, I'll cover one area of my life... my new fetish, if you will: books.
I get off just thinking about reading some more before I shut my eyes for sleep tonight.
It's coming in second to my music life right now, which I feel like shit for admitting. Oh man. That's almost sad.

It's not like I've read a shit load of books this year, either. Just lately, it's been buy a book, read it, pick up another, read it, another, etc. There are a couple that I've started and then left behind for later as well.
BUT, since I want to at least try to keep up with the books I am reading this year, I'll post the list on here so I have it.

1. Girl With a Pearl Earring
This was the book that I chose to read with my group in Comp II class in January, but I enjoyed it nonetheless
2.Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging (Book 1)
3.On the Bright Side, I'm Now the Girlfriend of a Sex God (Book 2)
4. Knocked Out by My Nunga-Nungas (Book 3)
5. Dancing In My Nuddy Pants (Book 4)
6. Away Laughing on a Fast Camel (Book 5)
7. Then He Ate My Boy Entrancers (Book 6)
8. Startled by His Furry Shorts (Book 7)
9. Love is a Many Trousered Thing (Book 8)
2-9 are books in the Georgia Nicolson series that I just began this year. I'll be reading book 9 as soon as it comes out next week!!!
10. Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist
11. High Fidelity
12. Youth in Revolt (just started this today when it came in the mail)

So yeah, crummy list so far and I think that I included everything. I actually got well into Lady Chatterley's Lover before starting Nick and Norah, but ah well. I'll finish that eventually.
Oh, and no it is not a coincidence that I am reading/have read two books this year that are being made into films that Michael Cera will be staring in.

BUT HEY:
This week is going to be pretty alright (minus the 3 nights that I have to work)
Wednesday I'm skipping class to attend a birthday dinner with my family and my sister's best friend's family (her friend's mom and my sis have the same birthday, and we're all really close, etc.).
Saturday. Since most of my sister's friend cannot come to her birthday party, therefore forcing her to reschedule, I'm taking her and her best friend to Pensacola for what I'm hoping will turn into a fun-filled day of exploring (and getting lost in, without a doubt) the city. I need to find some record stores to explore while we're there.

I have no idea how those 2 events have me so sure that this week will be alright, but they do.

I must go and read and then sleeep and wake up at 8:45AM to take my sister to band practice. Joy unbound!
