About 58 pages into this Neil Stephenson book, Cryptonomicon, and I think I really like it -- aside from his disdainful tendancy toward the more vulgar words in the English language, though not nearly as horrendous as Stephen King, and probably only irksome to one such as I.

Anyways, That's 58 pages, and I've had the book for at least a week in not more. Granted, a good deal of that lapse is due to the lack of time I've put toward reading it, but... It's a large 910-page novel.

I want to write. I ALMOST have an idea -- a few characters and a rough outline for relationships, but the ever-elusive, all-important element, Plot, still evades me. And as anyone who has ever created, I doubt my own abilities.

Still, it's a good book, for the 1/18th of it I've read...

(I have half a mind to stay up all night reading this, and if not for the fact that I need to get up and drive and thing and work tomorrow, I just might have...)

>_<
I have such a headache.
I can't barely think at all.
Another 2 hours before I go home.
The class at 1:30, and back here again at 3:30.
