Yesterday's exam went about as expected. To whit, unpleasantly. Today, I was supposed to go read books in the library, but I had a bit of an avoidance episode. I went to the bookshop, bought Laura Anne Gilman's Curse the Dark and spent the day reading that instead.
My climbing date cancelled, I have overcaffeinated my stomach into queasiness, and my social anxiety seems to be back again. Ah, exam season. You remind me so much of why I much prefer essays, and the whole rest of the year.
Tomorrow, if I'm a Good Student, I'll go into the library and read Real Books. And then make for the gym to try to get rid of some of this pus and bile.
If I fail Virtue, well. It's a bank holiday weekend, so I'd better not fail virtue. Library won't open again until 9 AM Tuesday.
#
I'm not reading any more of Shadow Unit: Refining Fire until Sunday. My stomach doesn't need more stress, and I need my sleep too much.
Yeah, that situation? Contributed a little too much to my exam stress dreams and queasy illness.
#
I'm going to be away for the summer blockbuster season in books. I've ordered them from Amazon, but. They won't arrive until I'm back.
So help me, my friends, I'm going to be out of range of an English-language bookshop for eight weeks. But I'm bringing the laptop. So tell me, where do I go to get free ebooks these days? Because I'm signed up to Tor, I've visited Cory Doctorow's website, and (thank heavens, I think) I've mostly grown out of enjoying the stuff Baen produces.
Help?
