Spent a good portion of the day driving to and from the dentist. I had no cavities, but I thought it rather telling that my sisters, who did, ate candy on the way there. I didn't manage to find a copy of The Great Gatsby anywhere. It was out at the library (They only have one copy. WTF?) and all the bookstores have the annoying edition that I already own. Hmm, that was about all I did today.

Now I'm off to play DDR and then work on the [livejournal.com profile] yuletide fic. Then Mystic River at 7. Oh, and [livejournal.com profile] old_sport needs some backstory and [livejournal.com profile] dead_and_lost needs an intro. Looks like I've got some stuff to keep me busy.

And also I could use a nice hardcover one. The one I own is kinda beat up and has Molly's amusing but sometimes irrelevant highlighting in it.

I've also underlined every slashy line in the entire book.

I fail to see the problem with the last part.

It's hard to focus on Gatsby as a character when you keep picturing him in bed with Nick showing him his "portfolio"

That is kind of wrong, I must admit.
