Okay, I've been neglectful of my xanga. Thats due to my life being boring. Today was interesting though. My boyfriend and I went and saw Michael Moore today. It was a lot of fun and I didn't realize Michael Moore had such bad ass security guys. Right in the beginning some guy come storming up on to stage with a trophy in his hand and this big bald black guy in a secret service suit is up there faster than shit and knocks the kid down then picks him up and throws him off the stage. I don't think Michael had said 10 words yet when this happend. It seemed a little shorter than I expected, I think this was due to the fact he had two other apperences in Oregon and had to get up to Seattle so he was short on time. Also I know from his website that durinng part of the show he shows clips form the special features portion of F9/11 as well as other parody Bush ads, but we were outside and didn't have access to a screen to show these on. There were about 5 Bush supporters in the audience who got heckled the whole time. Michael said to be nice to them and welcome them and to not be as they are to us. However, all that changed when a brother of a soldier killed in Iraq got up and made a speach, they started a mean chant or something and recieve a tongue lashing from Michael about it. Even though it seemed short and started to rain, I'm happy I went.
My ballot has been signed, sealed, and delivered. YAY for me!!! My boyfriends finally showed up today. I was getting worried just because he sent in his registration so long ago. Its his first time voting and he picked a good election to start in.
I am re-reading Foucault's Pendulum as there is so much in the book its impossable to get it all the first time. The author does a wonderful job of weaving facts and fiction while still keeping true to the facts, unlike other books *coughs*DaVinciCode*coughs* Anyone into ancient religion, history, masons/templars, symbolism, mathmatics, cults etc. I highly suggest it if you want to read about these things in a fictional form.

What was false in the Da Vinci Code? I got one of those companion "cracking the davinci code" books when I got it, and most of the stuph was factual according to that book.
ryc: Yes, it's a store that deals solely in used books. The credit is a quarter of the price on the back; although they must be less than 5 years old, and in mint condition, and she'll only take them if she doesn't have more than 2 copies already on the shelf.
She sells the books for half of the cover price. So it's almost a "give 2/get one" deal, which works for me! Plus, she has everything organized into authors, alphabetically, and by genres, so it's really easy to find things!
Ugg! Remind me to send my ballot in! I need to by this weekend just to be sure that it makes it.
