That's my girl, large and in-charge. Okay, teensy-weensy and in charge.

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."

not your mom's socks.

He just yelled "TESSERACT!" from the other room. That was a little unnerving.
Should you go check to make sure he's still there?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Barbara Hambly's Darwath trilogy (ebooks) is on sale today for $3.99. Should apply to all retailers.

Tiny House "librairie" - is that a bookshop in French?

I love this - particularly because their cat looks so much like my dear, departed Tanuki.

"librairie" - is that a bookshop in French?

Yup.
"librairie d'occasion" = used book store
"la maison qui chemine" = literally, the house that walks along (a path) but I'd probably say the wandering house.

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

I am totally in love with this phrase now.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I just got an email telling me that the new Skulduggery Pleasant book is on its way to me! Supposedly it will take 2 weeks, since it's coming from the UK, but I think the previous books I've ordered from the UK have gotten here more quickly.

And I just got an updated email that it should be here on Wednesday. At least Amazon UK is consistent with beating its estimated delivery date by a week.

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

Wow! And me trying to be financially responsible.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Last night I went to a book trivia night sponsored by the local library and held in my favorite bar. The head librarian said they'd been tasked with more community outreach, and that they were planning to interpret that as "find ways to meet book-loving people in as many local bars as possible". [Your deity here] bless librarians.
