Miles to go before I sleep
Just finished Dragonhaven, again. This might be the fourth time I've read it, but that's not important. Tonight, I feel like the protagonist, exhausted and tired and still so much to do before really resting. And I should explain that to my mother, and tell her that is why I really, really don't want to wash the dishes, but I don't really want to have that conversation, and I have probably like three other important things to do before work tomorrow. And I am so, so tired. Not physically tired, or mentally tired, but tired with the weight of responsibilities, given and assumed. I just want to sleep. Or cuddle with you.

*huggles* I hope you’re feeling better after the weekend :)
ReplyDeleteAlso, in other news, I like your Robert Frost.
And your Robin McKinley.
I finished Spindle’s End—I think what I really like about it (besides the general Robin McKinley greatness of style, etc.) is the way she does the ending. It really comes out of left field, but at the same time it fits the story really well. Like if you’d known beforehand the ending was going to be wonky you could maybe have seen it coming, but the foreshadowing was all really, really subtle. I appreciated it.
