Just finished reading 'Looking for Alaska' which despite a slow start turned out to be a really good and introspective provoking book. I was crawling through it (and its not a very long book) but this morning about halfway through it became unputdownable and I finished it just after lunch. The final paper Miles (the main protagonist in the book) writes is a wonderful gritty and honest musing on life & loss and feels beautifully human and humane. And while sometimes some of the characters  didn't ring quite true the writing made you feel a deep enough of a connection with them to deeply care. So In summary that was good and I'm still no

Mood: smiling and listening to this So I could a DD on one of my stock images, can't believe it. :disbelief: :w00t: :thumb423590382: Really raised my spirits on a day where I was mostly just dreading tommorrow (+12hr factory shift!! :() and feeling bad about yesterday when my design was eliminated from a competition on 99designs. Thanks for picking me up when I needed it :dalogo: :lol:
