I walked a mile for tic-tacs

actually i walked a mile and a half for Stephen King, but the tic-tacs were the initial motivation and they were on the way.
Thing to Take Note Of #1- if you sit on the floor in the library for an hour and a half and read stephen king, you will most certainly feel it later.
Thing to Take Note of #2- In a small town, you can almost always find someone to hang out with that you know, who's going the same direction, or even to the same place.
Thing to Take Note of #3- Stephen King novels are severely addicting. I came home from school friday, and the whole day this urge to read a big, thick, riveting stephen king novel had been creeping over me. Now people who know me know that i absitively hate the cold, but by the end of the day the sensation had turned into a full-blown, must-have craving for a nice heavy book, one that you pull off the shelf and you can feel it all good and heavy in your hands and you know its going to be awesome, following the lives of people through all those 600+ pages, and you plant yourself in the middle of the aisle in the library on the floor with the shelves towering over you and the smell of book everywhere, and dont get up for hours. And for stephen king... i decided that i had to go and feed my craving, but my mom was busy. As i mentioned, I hate the cold, but for stephen king I put on a coat and two not matching gloves and started walking down my hill in the freezing cold and the wind, into and across town (which thankfully for my town isnt too far), and to the library, and i wasnt even sure it was open. I ran into someone i knew along the way, and chatted with them and bought two things of tic-tacs and warmed up at the 'village variety', then continued my trek. When i got there, i was in the right aisle (i know where his books are) and on the floor in a matter of seconds. I had a pile of possible books next to me, reading a couple others before finally settling on one. it was so awesome. I'm going back down monday if its open, just to sit and meander through my book and not be home, you know. But, i started reading it, and i have barely put it down since (youre lucky im even here, but i felt obligated to post to my faithful readers (aka becky), and so i pryed myself away...) even when i manage to pry myself away (like now), its still on my mind. I brought it for the two-second ride to church and back. I want to just walk around with my nose buried in it for hours and not stop until im done. Stephen King is one heck of a writer people, and I could only dream of being so good.

Thing to Take Note of #4- i have pink shoes
