Book

Last Thursday I worked. It was pretty slow for foot traffic though the big boss man reassured me that the sale were really good for the day.

I read a book. I finished the book. Mmmmm, book.

The Enchantment Emporium. Tanya Huff.

I may need to own it. I really hope she writes more in this world. There are aspects of this book that are really upsetting to some people. Most of those aspects I am really fond of. The treatment of sex frex. Not taboo. Not bad. Not shameful. Just another part of life, like eating and sleeping.

One habit of the main character was drawing charms on people that effectively said "MINE." I understand this impulse recently. Maybe I'm just getting to an age where I feel like I need to mark mine. A name tag of sorts, or perhaps a warning label. "No really. Don't fuck with this one. It comes with bigger consequences than you wanna deal with." Its not even a mine and only mine thing. I'm not selfishly possessive. Maybe I'm just tired of mine getting hurt. I won't do this. Everbody has their lessons to learna dn getting hurt is part of it. But wow is it tempting. MINE!
