Partly Coherent Gibberish

Once again, I have to say, I love this guy. He is so sharp and down to earth, and he says it like it is. Love that. Of course, being an ebook writer, his views on the subject are nice for me to hear. But then, pretty much every writer now is an ebook writer now, as most publishers have ebook formats of all their books these days.

It's not even 9 p.m and my eyes are closing. It's the whole waking up before 5 a.m thing. I reset the internal clock so that I can do the work outs in the morning before my shower and getting ready for work thing. So now I wake up at about 4:50 every morning. Makes me dead tired at night.

But the work outs lift my mood. I've been feeling pretty happy lately. Spring is coming! More sunshine. Warmer days. They help, but the exercise makes me feel better all around. I have more energy during the day, and all that serotonin rushing through my brain, I guess.

I'm going to bed early with a book. I'm re-reading my Dennis Lehane books, which I do every few years. He makes me happy, so I'm going to bed with him a lot lately. I have many shiny books on my shelf. Newer books with kick-ass covers, books I haven't read yet, but nobody does it like Dennis. So for the next while, no one else will do.

He keeps me warm as I snuggle under the flannel sheets and quilts with him, he gets my heart racing, and he makes me laugh. He gets me tingling and he leaves me breathless. Can't get much better than that. I've loaned him out to people who haven't given him back, and have had to buy the entire series and the stand alones again, twice. So I refuse to share him with anyone again.

Don't get me wrong. I love sharing books. I give them away all the time. I don't care if I get any other book back. In fact, I don't expect them back. I'm happy to share the happiness, and I have far too many books on my shelf, on the bed side table, the floor beside the bed, and under the bed, to ever want them back. If I've given a book to you, please keep it.

But Dennis Lehane, I want back.

Okay, off I go.
