I'm upset that Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides is now a part of the Oprah book club.

I mean, I understand why; it's a great book! But I'm annoyed by the fact that whenever I do get around to buying it -- because I want it for my own library collection -- that it will have a giant OPRAH'S BOOKCLUB stamp on it.

Oprah, must you leave your mark on

I found several copies w/o oprah on it :D

[malonwic]

Really? This is awesome news, thank you! And yes, I'm being picky. And second, that is one of the very few times that I have ever been called Kris...fantastic! :)

[alm82]

would you like an oprah- less copy? before they are snatched up by all the anti-oprah? LOL

So I just read your post on our friendly neighborhood under-the-counter community, and it made me think: I don't know any girls from Canadia named Kris. Perhaps you can fix this?

I'm Jon. I hope you don't mind if I friend you?

[malonwic]

Of course I don't mind! I'm friending you back.

But my name is not Kris, you've been fooled! That's just a short form. :P I'm Krista, nice to meet you.

[svtdragon]

Haha. Tricky Canadians.

D'you have any kind of an IM thingy?

[malonwic]

I have MSN, if that's any good? My addy for that is cinnagirl_05@hotmail.com But shhh, it's a secret.

Coolcool! I'm jcdarkdragon at netscape. (On that note, I really ought to get a new email for that now that I'm not a teenager anymore... ah, laziness.)
