You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

Buffy ,'Lessons'


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 am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I know I'm not ready. I think some day I might be? But not yet.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Should I just embark on a lifetimes denial that the book exists?

looks at unread copy of The Shepherd's Crown

sniffles

I may join you in that.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I read it, being of the school of "rip that bandage off", cried at a few points, and then embarked on a re-read of all the witches' books, starting with Equal Rites. I do want to get a nice boxed set of the Aching series for Peanut.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I started. I was definitely not ready. But I don't think I can quit now.

not your mom's socks.

Oh I would like to do that.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I finished. There were tears.

I just came to the realization the Granny Weatherwax would not approve of this plan.

I'm still not ready, but maybe sooner than I thought.

I wasn't ready. I should have waited.

Our wings are not tired.

I still have a significant backlog. Lack of sufficient reading time is working in my favor here.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I haven't read any of the Discworld books, but I'm looking forward to starting them. (I love soliciting opinions on where to start, because the ensuing discussion is WAY less contentious than "what's the best way to make scrambled eggs?" That discussion gets as fierce as the mayo vs. Miracle Whip debate.)
