On September 27th I uploaded my 100th entry (I started this blog on July 8th). I meant to mention that earlier while I was catching up on the events of the past six days. I didn't think I'd be able to keep writing for this long. I have somehow managed to surprise myself. I like it when I do that. I thought perhaps that I wouldn't much to say. Or rather, I thought that what I would say wouldn't amount to much, not anything more than simply a retelling of given day's events. Sometimes I do recap, but I don't do that for every single entry. Usually when I do, I have a point in mind. For instance:
Andrew is so sweet. He took me to dinner earlier this evening (we went to Don Pablo's in Alexandria) and afterward we went shopping. He bought me two CDs: the Enya "Only Time Collection" and Sarah McLachlan's "Mirrorball", two DVDs: The Smashing Pumpkins 1991 - 2000 Greatest Hits Video Collection and the Ultimate Edition of Cats (which we are going to go see performed live next weekend at the National Theater), and two books: Dead Until Dark by Charlaine Harris, and The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood. I'm spoiled rotten. Too bad I lack the time to do anything meaningful with any of this new stuff :(.
What's the point? Well, if you think about it, there's a rather insightful look into my personality somewhere in there. I like to shop, that much is evident. You also get a sense of what kind of music I listen to, what sorts of books I like to read, and that I am a very busy person at this time. Speaking of which I really need to be getting back to my homework!!
