Today, I intended to watch The Dark Knight in Imax. This was going to be the highlight of my day, the pinnacle of my week. Instead M., B., and I found out that TDK was only showing at 1230 and 2130. So instead of being awe-strucked by a super action packed flick with sets that'd make me pee my pants, we settled for DINOSAUR-3D!!! I ended up snoozing through a quarter hour of the hour long educational film.
Despite that tragedy, the day turned out pretty well. I went to the bookstore and found two books: The Glass Castle and The Shack. The fact that I found these two books has left me feeling giddy for hours. I've been looking for The Glass Castle since December of last year, and The Shack was a book that we just recently suggested to me (S.S.). Anyway, this leads to my next question: Why do I find the books I'm looking for in the place I least expect to find them? A year ago I bought the Innocent Man -- which I couldn't find in the fiction section -- cause it's a non-fiction book. Today I found The Glass Castle in the Biographies section, when I thought all along it was a fictional book. And I found The Shack in the Bestsellers section -- which I find odd cause it's one of those Christian novels (I was at a Christian bookstore and I asked my friend if they had Christian novels -- it sounded so uncool). I'm not really making any sense right now, but I'm trying to get all my weird thoughts out before I hit the lights and head to bed.
Here's my to read list:
Guerilla Marketing
The Language Instinct
The Big Over Easy
Maps and Legends
At World's End
Cost of Discipleship
The Twilight Series (maybe not)
[edit] I forgot to mention that I got 20% off both books!
