 I have some good news.  My grandfather is doing better, and he's currently in rehabilitation recovering.  I found out yesterday when my aunt came over.  That's one less thing that I have to worry about.  I had so many family members  pass away last year that I just think I could deal with that again.  Therapy sort of helped, but in reality dealing with the loss of a loved one takes time.  I honestly don't think I've fully dealt with it.  I  really haven't dealt with my grandmother's passing last year.  But I don't want to dwell on that because it makes me feel miserable, and depressed so changing the subject.

As for the stuff I bought at the bookstore that I mentioned in the previous post my friend recommended a book called "Tuesday with Morrie", and I have to say it's a really touching, and beautiful story.  It's sort of sad though because the main character Morrie has ALS, and he really goes downhill as the story progresses.  I also bought a few CD's.  Linkin Park's "Living Things", The Velvet Underground's "White Light White Heat", and The Smiths "Best I."  I bought 1 vinyl David Bowie's "Let's Dance", but the record ended up being in bad shape so I have to return it.  I bought another copy of that album on ebay that is in better condition last night, and the seller is from Dallas.  He said he'll ship it tomorrow morning so I'll be looking forward to receiving that album.  I also bought a vinyl copy of "Tragic Kingdom" by No Doubt.  That album holds a special place in my heart because it was my first rock/alternative album.  The vinyl is transparent yellow, and  in perfect condition so it was a nice find. 

I've been watching old seasons of the X-Files just to refresh my memory about everything.  It's really enjoyable.  I forgot how great the chemistry was between Mulder and Scully on the older seasons.  I also have to catch up on the current episodes of Sleepy Hollow since I'm behind.  I decided to renew my Netflix account again.  They had a lot of documentaries that I enjoyed, and Hulu doesn't really have a large movie selection like Netflix does.  

Anyway I hope everyone is having a good week.  :)

About

I'm a 32 year old woman. I'm an artist, and I'm into the Gothic subculture. Things that I enjoy include but are not limited to 80's Music, Reading, Drawing, Animation, Playing bass guitar, Gothic rock, indie music, horror films, anime, comics, video games, and sci-fi novels. I don't know what I'd do without music, and art. I listen to Siouxsie and the Banshees way more than I should.
