I read Holly Black's Tithe last night, and ended up well into her second book, Valiant, before I had to quit it for a while to cram some theology notes into my brain and get through the orals by the skin of my teeth. I've just finished Valiant, of course, and am craving for the third book, Ironside, which is totally not within my means to acquire ( Read more... )

Never have I seen two such disparate words compounded. And every time I try to run through it in my head, I can't help laughing.

Brokeback to the Future

Stumbled upon it today. It is Very Special. I wonder when I can get my hands on a copy (m.p. *not* through the regular channels) of Brokeback Mountain. Man, I've been ogling it since November '05, but knowing it's out there and people (in the rest of the world where I don't live) are watching it is just, just...*aargh*!!!

Gosh...but it's been so long. Another year is just beginning, and so is a brand new craze for me.

It's just...I LOVE PBWIKI!!! It's the best damn free webspace host I've encountered in the net, and it's got the easiest page editor I've ever tried. It's a veritable godsend for lazy people, like moi.

Hahaha...I'm raving. Again. Well, can't help it ( Read more... )
