I'm so evil and... skanky. And I think I'm kinda gay.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Because books.

not your mom's socks.
Mary Robinette Kowal made an interesting card game to go with Shades of Milk and Honey (which I haven't read yet - has anyone here?). [link]
Also, now that I seem to have my eyes back, I can start on Feed and then Deadline. I've been so jealous of folks reading them, when I know they're waiting on my iPad for me. Also the 1/3 of Embassytown that I didn't finish before I had to give up the shiny screens.
ETA: links are helpful

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I must share this t-shirt. It's pretty awesome.
Oh, Neville. You so rule.

I know that the narrative wants me to love Harry, Ron, and Hermione best. But I think my personal favorite characters are Luna, Neville, and Tonks. They're just so splendid. Weird and flawed and awesome.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Ooh, how is it? It sounds intriguing.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Neville is one of my favorite characters, too. I love the way he progresses from a bumbler with a sad story to a student with a flair for potions to one of the leaders of his class.

Luna and Neville are two of my favorites, too.
We finally saw the first part of Deathly Hollows a week ago, and I was startled when Neville appeared. Talk about growing up. He's hardly the little kid he was when they started filming the movies.

I'm toying with the idea of rewatching the movies before the final one comes out, although that's actually harder to fit into my schedule. I can listen to audiobooks on the bus, while walking the dog, at the gym, or whatever, but watching the movies means sitting in front of the tv or computer for 15+ hours in the next five weeks.
... maybe I can recruit my nieces, make it a joint project...

This is a plan! Make popcorn and try to make butter beer.
