I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

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."

I don't know whether to thank you or curse you, Dana. That is not good news for the shopping diet.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Sorry?

So far I've only bought Jonathan Strange and Pride and Prejudice and Zombies (99 cents).

And Zoo City is only 99 cents, and it's supposed to be excellent.

I wonder if God's War is on sale...

not your mom's socks.

Zoo City is excellent.

My The Thackery T Lambstead Cabinet of Curiosities arrived. It looks really good, and very odd.

Oh no! You don't think he's going to follow through on that "live to be 100 minus 1 day" thing, do you? It'll be too soon!

The status is NOT quo.

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

Pooh is forever.

Viva ile Pooh!

Because books.

I'm sad that Sara isn't very interested in seeing the new movie, because I would love to.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Dude, ditch the kid and go alone!
