Giles: I'm sure we're all perfectly safe. Dawn: We're safe. Right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with. Tara: It sounded convincing when I thought it.

DH has a stronger collector/decorator gene than I do, or something, so he likes having all our editions match

Oh, I sympathize mightily. All of my Buffy DVDs, except for season 5, got ripped off and I've been replacing them slowly. The newer DVDs come in slimline packages and my S5 is in the floppy fold out package. It grates.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Well, I have to admit that I'm holding out on buying all the Sharpe books as opposed to getting them from the library until Bernard Cornwell stops writing them, because I figure then his publisher is bound to put out a nice, matching, beautifully packaged boxed set, which I can shelve beside my Aubrey/Maturin boxed set. As is stands now, the series has at least three different cover styles, one of which I really dislike, and some are MM while others are trade pb, so they'd look sloppy on a bookshelf. I did, however, buy a few of my favorites when he was keynote speaker at a writers conference I attended so I could get them autographed.

It probably just shows I'm less invested in HP than in Sharpe or Aubrey/Maturin.

What drives me batty is when they make a movie of a really good book, and you can only afterwards find it with movie tie-in covers.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Totally. Only one of my autographed Sharpes has Sean Bean on the cover, for, lo, I am shallow when the guy is sufficiently hot.

Still reading past page 500 now, still enjoying the heck out of it.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I am pleased to report that following his dissertation defense yesterday, Bob Bob is now Dr. Bob Bob!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

WOO!! Go Dr. Bob Bob!

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Yay, Dr. Bob Bob!!! Congrats, Dr. Smarty Pants!
