Wow, if I was Rowling, I'd be inscribing that review in bronze and hanging it in the office. That's some heady company they're comparing her to.
I've really got to learn to just do the damage and get out of town. It's the 'stay and gloat' that gets me every time.

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."

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

That's 48 hours TOO LONG.
Although, I am reading quite a bit of fic. (Thank you very much!!!)
I sometimes wonder if there's something wrong with me that I'm this invested in a work of fiction where I just feel every little thing that they feel.
And then I look around at all of youse and think, "Well, if there's something wrong with me, there's something wrong with them and I'm ok with that. We're all wrong together."

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I was reading GoF last night, and Minerva grabs Hermione's neck/throat, to steady herself when she's slipping on that water from Peeve's water balloons. Seemed odd.
And, I will wear that t-shirt with you, Aimee.

I just read that chapter last night too and had the same reaction.

Did you get my reccie for Midnight Confessions, Aimee? I like that one a lot for the strong Weasley family (both immediate and extended) that it had, as well as the neat idea of family magic.

I've been feeling like I'm wandering through Close Encounters...."This means something."
