I transfered my shit over to pinboard which is actually pretty good so far! Not so much the social stuff though, apparently. Plus SINCE EVERYBODY WAS ON DELICIOUS none of the other sites have the trending thing going on. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW WHAT PEOPLE THINK ABOUT MY FIC EVEN IF THEY NEVER COMMENT. HOW.

Also on Diigo as lazulisong, although they haven't got my bookmarks ported over yet. On the bright side, there's an Android app. It's really depressing how attached I am to my stupid Android. Amy and I even both got the ThinkGeek plushies. Mine should be in today, which excites me unreasonably; I plan to do many, many terrible things.

ANYWAY in less 'why do you suffer these dicks to live' news, I was flipping through a random catalog yesterday and discovered that A STELLA GIBBONS NOVEL HAS BEEN REPRINTED. If you're just joining the channel, Stella Gibbons is one of my favorite authors despite the fact that you can only really find her first novel, Cold Comfort Farm anywhere. You should read it. I have bought cheap copies at Powells and mailed them to people because I love this book so much. If I was to do a course on How to Write Like A Funny Person, this would be one of the books on the list. (No, seriously, it is a deadpan parody of a certain type of popular novel and her timing is like. If she was still alive it would be creepy hugs and stalking all around.)

So I'm probably going to get it for Christmas and wrap it up so I don't read it until then.

... I was so happy to find out about this, and then I found out about yahoo being dicks. Sigh.
