Done

Jul 12, 2008

I just typed THE END. 575 pages. We?re done.

It?s dark now, and the only light are the candles and the computer screen, like little islands of illumination in the darkness. I didn?t even notice it getting dark. I finished the book to Diary of Dreams, which Charles first played for us in Toronto. I?ll have to shoot him an e-mail thanking him for the music find. Of course, if Jon hadn?t had the tech skills to put it down on his iPod, I still wouldn?t have had it handy.

Jon and I took Trinity out to do the shopping I?d promised. I?d planned on finishing the book then doing the shopping. Glad I didn?t try and do it in that order, because I?d have been having to disappoint the kiddo. What time is it, anyway? Checked the clock, it?s only 9:00, which is pretty early for a marathon session for me. The latest I ever finished was 4 or 5 o?clock in the morning. That was the end of LUNATIC CAFE. So 9, that?s not bad. That?s like a full night?s sleep ahead of me. Cool.

But I?m done, I?m really done. Wow. Thank you God and Goddess, and I mean that. This book has kicked my ass.
