Currently reading: Finished Peter Stenson's Fiend, and now I want to compile a full blog post about it, but that will likely come later. Just a Goodreads review for now. I also have the other titles I haven't yet finished, and there's a new stack from Yakima Valley Libraries that's piled on one of my end tables. Since I'm at the start of a horror streak — and September 1 begins the season of reading such material — it seems likely that most of my next selections will be from the supernatural realm. I've kind of got a yen to plow through some of those classics, the foundations of horror as the fall sets in.
Level of happiness: No more than a C+ today. Not great. Not terrible. Mostly unremarkable.
Highlights from the day: Getting to leave work a little early. Talking to Ms. Sarah Erickson about gratitude meditation. Laughing with her. Venting to Ryan A. after the meeting. Then to Brennan. Finishing Fiend. Eating a late supper. Finding a horror movie to watch before bed. Preparing to go through this stack of books from the library. Thinking about the coming 3-day weekend.

Nothing more substantial to write tonight. But at least I managed to get a post in for the first day of September.
The plan is to spend the next 58 days on Dracula and Frankenstein, H.P. Lovecraft and Stephen King, all those 80s horror flicks I never got around to renting during my youth and all the new stuff that'll be hitting theaters in the coming weeks.
Let's see if I stick to it.
