Oh RIGHT, I have a blog.

Told ya'll I was a horrible blogger.

Ten days? HOLY FREAKING FROGS that's a while. I mean, I'm sure I could go longer if I really didn't try (hah!), but I'm not going to. I mean, I have like, six followers (Hi!), and even if ya'll don't read anymore since this blog sure has been through a lot of changes and a lot of hiatuses.

ANYWAY ....

So I was in the city the other day with my roommate, and we walked all the way down to 57 and Park for a book signing. Aside from the headache I had, I enjoyed it, but ... well, her feet didn't. Stupid cute flats. Anyone else ever have that problem?

Right. The book signing. Back on topic. So we went to see John Green and David Levithan for their new book Will Grayson, Will Grayson. If any of ya'll are Nerdfighters, or have read their other books, you'll know how awesome at least one of them is. Anyway, they're a pair those two, let me just say.


And just to be fair .... a nice (but still blurry) picture of them:




Not only did they go on an epic splurge of random tangents that included the bashing of Stephanie Meyer, Justin Beiber, and Miley Cyrus, but they also had another author, whose book came out on the same day, join them and read a little from her book.

The Exile of Gigi Lane by Adrienne Maria Vrettos seems quite worth the read. She's funny, light, and interesting. If I had had the money to buy another hard copy book, I would have. The blurbs she read to us had me laughing out loud, and I felt bad that I couldn't get her to sign something as well.

Anyway, it seems to be promising, so either buy it, read it, and let me borrow it, or wait until it goes to paperback like me. :P Also, make sure to read Will Grayson, Will Grayson! It's also hilarious, as well as an amazing read that I basically just ate up. You'll love it.

This is all I can write for the moment, unfortunately or fortunately, as I'm being yelled at to start a paper that's due tonight. Woops! I'll update when John updates his vlog so we can see if I'm visible in his video. :P

Peace out!

I Promised Myself I Would Keep Up With This ...

I really am a horrible blogger, but hopefully I'll actually do well with this one since I'm finally happy with the layout and all.

Hah.

So anyway, there's this girl in my class that's published, and as cocky as she is, I'm so jealous that she's already published. I feel like her story is soap opera-esque, but that's still beside the point. SO, point is, I want to finish this original that I have. It's taking me forever to write though, which frustrates me. I mean, I don't expect it to be done within a month or anything, but you know, I'd like to actually make some progress on it every once in a while.

So, Tommy, get out of the hole you've dug yourself in, and let me frickin' write you!
