FICTION OF THE NINJA KIND

I was cheering for Bird to go go go, but the wrong Bird listened. Mine that Bird came in a struggling third and Summer Bird came in a dazzling first. Oh what a race though. With Dunkirk they really battled it out for the lead. I can tell you though that Birdstone (sire to both of them) is going to have his stud fee increase. His babies are doing some good running. Birdstone was also an upset in the Belmont. This pretty much wraps up horse racing for awhile. I'm going to try and catch some of the later summer races like the Haskell and the Travers, but we'll see. My track record with those races is not so good.

Moving is not going so well. So I'm not going to talk about it.

I recently was at Barnes and Nobles and decided to read though and catch up on the Anita Blake Series by Laurell K. Hamilton. I would recommend the first six. And then I would recommend that you drop the book series like a hot potato and never cast eyes on them again. You will no longer recognize the main character. Anita, whom you might previously have thought to have morals and at the very least standards drops those faster then the aforementioned hot potato and picks up more guys then I have fingers to sleep with. At once. I think even porn stars would blush at how many people she's sleeping with. And the books become pages of badly written porn. I read better fanfiction. Anyway, I've stopped buying the books a long time ago and even sold the ones I did have to half price. Still, reading these books now is like a train wreck you just have to wonder who's pants will fall off next. I mean the number of guys she's "accidentally" had sex with is just...yeah. To get to the point, I skimmed through some of the most recent books last weekend, and on Tuesday the new book Skin Trade came out. Now Skin Trade had a character that I had missed (one who hasn't been sexed up) and so I decided to read it. It was almost like the old Anita.

1. more then 20 pages without sex
2. only one big magically orgy at the end (which involved a 16 year old and all I can say is ewwwwwwwwww. I couldn't read it. Just way to much squick. Supposedly we're supposed to feel better because she didn't do it on purpose. Yes, that makes underage sex so much better. No consent because of magic)
2. She didn't sleep with Tedward! Wonder how long that's going to last.
3. Creepy Olaf was creepy. and also didn't get to have sex with her

I don't know. It wasn't great, but for once in recent history it wasn't badly written porn. Huh.Still not buying any of them.

So I have not been sleeping well because for the last few days I have been hunted in my dreams. By an invisible foe with tourists being disappeared all around me (normally this would be a good thing) and it's just very odd. Also, this morning after dreaming for the second night of this crazy dreaming I figured out what was hunting me....a t-rex. Yeah. I don't know what's going on in my head, but my goodness it's bizarre. I want different dreams thank you. Also, at some point this week I would like to wake up in the morning and feel like I ever went to bed.

So in moving news...the new apartment flooded. But it's okay, we hadn't moved in yet. We're getting a new new apartment. A better apartment. I'm looking forward to living in a new apartment, but not the actual moving part.

Rachel Alexandra will not be running in the Belmont. However, Mine That Bird will be running in the Belmont. So....if he wins Rachel Alexandra will have spoiled a triple crown bid. I was so happy when a filly won the Preakness, but now that she might be a spoiler...I still love her. Maybe next year.
