I started reading Salman Rushdie's The Satanic Verses a few days ago. I love it. I'm very happy that LC convinced me to read it, as she is reading it also. I feel that it is a nice tie to the History of Islam class I took in the spring, as I would probably be very confused and not want to finish the story if I didn't know what I now know about Islam and Muhammad. For Mother's Day, boyfriend Chad bought me Letters from the Earth by Mark Twain, which I've been anxious to read since I read an excerpt from it for the American Lit. class I took a few semesters ago. My boyfriend is so good. Yes, he is. I plan on reading Letters from the Earth after I finish The Satanic Verses. I think they may be a good compliment to one another. East v. west. Good v. Evil.
Mother's Day was fun. We had homemade breakfast with mom, then I took the hellion to the movies to see "The Pirates! Band of Misfits" movie. The weather wasn't up to par, however, so I didn't get to take pictures of us in our "swag." However, I do have an instagram account, which I post random pictures on, if any of you lovelies would like to follow: lwlmthompson.
I've swung back into my workout routine again. I've also started drinking a protein shake after workout sessions, so hopefully my body can benefit a little more from that and I can start seeing the results I want sooner. I'll keep my fingers crossed.
It's nice to have a month off from school. I'm looking forward to summer classes, however, because I'm looking forward to graduation in December!
