Because books.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Went to a party last night. Gary's dad's cousin had a party for his son who was in town. There was a small bat in one of the trash cans, which was brought out to the balcony and let go. (Kind of the highlight for me, as I didn't know most of the people and was feeling rather introverted)

Going to go to the comic book store and the library today, then a movie tonight.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

OMG, I don't know why it never occurred to me to look it up before, but someone posted Precious Bane on YouTube!!! Excuse me while I freak out. I haven't seen this in going on twenty years, and it was one of my all-time favorite tv movies. Never been released on video here in the States, even though it stars Janet McTeer and a very young Clive Owen (this was the first thing I'd ever seen him in). I'll have to tell my sister, we were both big fans of it.

Fantastic! I too have been eager to see it again since it first aired. It's very romantic. FWIW, I have looked for it on YouTube several times so it's probably been uploaded more recently. Thanks for the tip.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Thanks Perkins. This is the gal who really supported me last year during mom's decline. I absolutely adore her (even though she is a Giants fan). I just feel so helpless out here.

Aw, Suzi, I'm sorry. Much ~ma for her, and for you all. You've had a tough weekend.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Ooh, Kathy, thanks! I read Precious Bane a few years ago at Hec's urging and loved it, and he has talked about the BBC production ever since.

Hmm. I should search YouTube and see if anyone's uploaded the BBC production of A Little Princess that's famous for being both true to the book (IIRC, it's Nilly's favorite version) and almost completely unavailable.

I hope everything goes well, for both of them.

There is such a thing? I love that book, and have been so disappointed in the adaptations, although at least the Cuaron version has the depressive mood of the book.
