While I was on campus today I picked up "The Rule of Four" by Ian Caldwell and Dustin Thomason. I saw the book before at an airport bookstore and decided to wait to buy it at Costco ~.~ But at the UCLA bookstore it was 30% off so that was good enough!
Anyways, I've been reading it ever since, and now it is 11pm and I am finally finished. (What is that... a good 6 hours?) Anyways, I just realized now that I have a FINAL tomorrow at 11AM to study for and I have to prepare my research presentation before tomorrow! Augh! I wasted a whole day!
Well, if you haven't read the book yet then I highly recommend it. The puzzle-solving theme reminds me a bit of Dan Brown's books but the writing style is different. The story is gripping and it's very hard to put down. I like the logic of it more than "The Da Vinci Code" but it did lag in some parts. Actually I was alone in the apartment while reading it and some parts of the book actually spooked me enough to get an eerie feeling that I wasn't alone in my apartment... I was pretty freaked out. I had to put the book down for a couple of minutes to shake it off.
On to bigger news... Lulu ate paint today! When I left for my doctor's appointment, Richard was actually on his way home so I let Moley & Lulu loose in the house. As soon as Richard arrived he called me to tell me that somehow Lulu got into some of Catherine's black paint and her face, ears, and feet were ALL black... and so was our carpet. I was freaked out! I called the vet right away and luckily the paint was water-soluble so it did not do any internal damage to Lulu. It did leave ugly physical damage to our carpet though. Even though it is water-soluble it is TOUGH to get out of berber carpet because the more you blot/scrub... the more it spreads.
Okay, enough procrastination! On to schoolwork...
