One of those days; sadness tinged with a smidge of hope

Today isn't a good day, first of all I missed going to work because I didn't hear my alarmclock and I also missed an important appointment. And evidently, I'm sending the wrong message to my friends... meeting some but not others. And I didn't know that they percieved it that way. So I appologized and I attend to right those wrongs, as good as I can.

So, what is my story? I'm twentysix, bisexual (and I'm still struggleing with some aspects of myself, trying hard to come to terms with them and perhaps someday be open about them, but as it is now: no, I don't feel as if I can), and I live in a small town in Sweden.

  I struggle with depression and have been doing so my entire life. I also have ADD (which is the calmer version of ADHD, if you want to know more: Search the internet or look it up in a  book!).
So reading and writing has saved my mind countless times, and it has given me an outlet. It has also given me joy and hope, and THAT is why I namned this blog-entry the way I did.

Yesterday I finished a book called 'Fat Vampire' by Johnny B. Truant. I expected it to be more funny, to be honest, with a cover like that and reading the blurb. So I was dissapointed somewhat by that, but that DOESN'T mean I didn't thoroughly enjoy it. I did! It was a diffrent take on the whole becoming-eternal-and-beautiful. Less fluff and more stuff - more action. And I like how it wasn't obvious from start to finish, the main character becomming 'beautiful' and not fat and in esscense rejecting his humbleing and difficult beginnings. If you want to read this book, I suggest that you start it with an open mind and bann every judgement in the likes of 'oh, this is bullsh*t! I know exactly how this'll end!' and read it with a big cup of tea (or coffee if you swing that way) and maybe a snack or two. It was a bit strange, but as I read I felt more and more hungry for sweets. So be ready for that!

Today I'll start reading another book (if I can get it to download properly, Kindle is being an utter and total pinapple-sandwich through a watering hose about it!): Bloodfire (Blood Destiny Book 1) by Helen Harper. Hopefully it's good, but you never can tell with some...

If Kindle still behaves like a pinapple-sandwich in ten minutes, I'll read another book I bought some days ago. 'Marionette' by T.B Markinson or perhaps 'Just Add Spice' by Carol E. Whyer.

I'm going to get myself a cup of tea,  and some toast (because I'm lazy that way, not making proper food in the middle of the night). And I hope you have a good day/good night! Until next entry!
