Well my old laptop lost the ability to log onto the internet
on Friday, so no internet access until today when a brought a new laptop (except
for my mobile phone, but it’s not quite the same on the teeny tiny screen!)
But about from trying to fix my IT problem the weekend was
pretty lazy – frazzle sandwiches, music, dvds, vodka, dealing with all the gluten
in frazzle sandwiches and lots of reading.
I read all of 100 Bullets and Brother Lono. It’s a whole lot
less confusing when read as a whole and it hangs together pretty well. The
stories that I had thought to be treading water/padding the story out to 100
issues, are more integral now – both to the characters and the whole story.
There is some potential questionable issues around representation of women and
sexual violence, but the story is set in a pretty dark and seedy world.
Monday/today was a bit more productive, although I feel like
I sent most of it getting the new laptop set up, downloading software, apps,
etc.
When I was buying it the shop assistant asked what I did and
it was the first time I told a stranger that I’m unemployed (although
technically I said I was between jobs, which is a little douche in hindsight).
Anyway, onward and upwards for tomorrow. Excelsior!!!
