the rain came out of nowhere after a sunny spell, devastated my weekend, i slept for most of it after working a 24 hour shift and then when i awoke i returned for more work. through the pummeling rain, up and down the highway at night, occasionally glimpsing a strawberry moon through the clouds, fighting fatigue and general weariness, gotta pay those bills, claw my way outta debt like every other person in australia. work drags on-wards like a heavy weight, i used to love it but now i am just drowning in other peoples stupidity, ego and manipulations. ah well i gotta face it each day.

i re read a book called 'i am pilgrim' after about a decade, i'd forgotten most of it. wow, it's a great story, well written and put together. a sort of high class airport book, but thicker than most and filled with adventure, mystery and characters that feel real. i really recall liking it the first time i read it but loving it the second.

terry haynes the author deserves the highest of accolades, i mean it's not a work of literature or art but it is a page turner and it's remarkably intelligent. 

  

i'm reading this book so i can crash into the next book terry haynes has written, it's another spy novel called year of the locust and i'm excited to read it. so far it's amazing.
