I'm almost certain I can hear someone crying in this computer room! But I am on the GOLDEN computer - yes, that's the name pasted on the machine! Yet another instance of good timing: my hold of But I Trusted You: Ann Rule's Crime Files #14 (Ann Rule) is ready to be picked up when I'm at the library already. YES! And I think LJ is unblocked from 3-6, or something. I better hurry before I'm off to Erin's to see her and Ben, with cheese bread! At least I won't come home to barf, excuses, a disrespectful person, false love declarations, and other such things unlike the LAST time I went over there in summer 2008!
