I find myself constantly wishing there were more hours in the day, just so I'd have time to stay true to my old routines while tacking on additional responsibilities that life seems compelled to throw my way.

Well, I've been attacking the Sookie Stackhouse series. If you aren't familiar with the series, it basically falls under the category of "southern vampire mystery." More importantly it has a jocose, tongue-in-cheek undercurrent that keeps the books from falling into the typical dark, brooding trammels most vampire books align themselves to. Since I've been waiting over a week for the next book I've put on hold to come in (why can't people return library books within their due dates), I've resorted to watching the True Blood series. For those of you not in the know, that's the HBO series that is based off of the Sookie Stackhouse books. The book-to-screen transition is actually done pretty well--much better than I thought it would have--with some additional situations thrown in from other characters' perspectives.

Aside from that things are going well. I have school, a job, an apartment, my hobbies and my friends. The only other thing I need is a girlfriend then I think I can be considered to be well-rounded individual.
