I really need to take my Powerbook to Apple and get the CD player/burner fixed. I haven’t been able to burn CDs with any consistency since May. Today I went by the library and picked up Harry Potter & the Order of the Phoenix on CD and am trying to put it into iTunes so I can listen to it on my iPod. I managed to get the first 3 CDs onto my computer before realizing I had already read all the chapters on those discs. Blonde moment. I did manage to get 1 CD put on my machine before it freaking out and spinning up and not ejecting. I have resorted to putting them onto Casey’s Powerbook (much faster anyway) and then I’ll just bluetooth them over.
I checked out 7 other books – one of which I’ve already read, Belly Laughs by Jenny McCarthy. I’ve been only the waiting list since it came out so like 4 months now. It has her usual sense of hilariously, gross humor and retells the true story of her pregnancy. Funny but scary stuff. Quick read as it’s only 165 pages. I’m attempting to listen to The Gunslinger. It’s not keeping my interest much right now but then again, I’m only in chapter one. I hope it’s not like The DaVinci Code, where there was so much hype that it was disappointing to read. I think I’m gonna start reading Fight Club next. Yes, I said reading – it’s by Chuck Palahnjuk who also wrote Diary which according to Marla is a pretty good book.
Back to transferring Harry Potter.
