I'm watching it snow, big fat fluffy snowflakes that aren't sticking to the pavement, while I wait for my lunch to digest so that I can work out.
This led to the BRQG, which has yielded the following particularly snerk-worthy quotes:
ita: if you can make it past eighteen and not notice your mother's glass eye, please don't throw a fit at me.
Hil R.: Totally random note: When I was at Barnes and Noble yesterday, I noticed The Complete Idiot's Guide to Contacting Spirits. I really feel there are some things we shouldn't be encouraging idiots to do.
lori: If it weren't for these Mars rovers, my entire vanity Google would consist of reprints of Dogs In Elk. As it is, Dogs in Elk accounts for 90%.
Lyra Jane: the idea of a gorilla signing "show me your tits" like a drunken Gallaudet frat boy is comedy GOLD.
(I don't think sexual harassment is funny, of course, but I can bend that a little if it involves an ape.)
I'm wearing a skirt that I haven't worn for a year! Go no eating!
Tep, I initially read all of those quotes as if they were a conversation and was mightily confused. And amused.
It *was* a conversation, silly. We're the Buffistas!
I finally got to the bookstore, and they were out of book 2 of the Dresden Files, so I picked up 3 & 4 and two of the non-numbered books from the series. I ordered book 2 and pre-ordered my copy of Harry Potter 7. Then I went to Old Navy and bought a clearance Valentine's t-shirt, a St. Patrick's Day t-shirt, and a big slouchy purse that was on clearance.
Now, I am putting together a quick dinner, cavatelli with a tomato sauce of onions, garlic, proscuito, and red pepper flakes, with some peas on the side. After dinner we're finally going to go see Dreamgirls.
There's non-numbered books in the Dresden series?
I just redeemed a bunch of my "ThankYou Points" from my credit card for a $50 amazon gift card. That was cool.
There's non-numbered books in the Dresden series?
There were two I got that were bigger than the other novels, and the just say the title and "A novel of the Dresden Files" on the spine with no number.
Those would be books 7 and 8.
Timelies, all. A belated, but sincere congratulations! to bon bon.

Mmmmmmmmm.
Re: handmedowns. My favorite dress as a little girl was a handmedown. It was one of those lacy, tulle-enhanced numbers with enbroidered daisies and whatnot. Mom was usually more into the functional, keep my child from frostbite types of things, and I loved the over the top girlieness of the dress.
