excellent
Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

We're Literary 2: To Read Makes Our Speaking English Good
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."

Let me just say that popularity with people on public transportation does not equal literary respect. --Jesse

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So fun! I never get tagged!

The longer I stay awake tonight, the more time I have before tomorrow begins.
You find some good stuff when you clean out your house. Like this note from someone I gave a book to for Christmas:
"Thank you so much for introducing us to The Weaver and the Factory Maid. M-- and I have both read it and enjoyed it immensely."

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Picked up Comfort Me With Apples, yesterday, determined to read at least one chapter for my book group, and couldn't put it down until I finished it. Ruth Riechl is now the editor of Gourmet, but she was a chef, then food critic in Berkeley, then LA. I loved the local details, her writing about food is sublime, and the snippets of her personal and family life were entrancing and heartbreaking.
Also, I kept thinking, Betsy is this good, too.

Heh.
Thanks for the tip, JC. And I got your note. I'm glad it went well and I'm sorry I missed the cake & everything.
Will call later.

I like Danny Kaye better anyway. Mmm, The Court Jester.
Taken from minearverse, but Danny Kaye is IN Comfort Me with Apples. He was a great chef, and became friends with RR.

Thanks to whoever mentioned Dennis Lehane. His work should help me get through till new-to-me Homicide comes out...I stayed up too late last night reading (memfault) Island.I'll tell myself I won't again, but probably. Just, damn. Nice echoes of Bayliss-in-pain, imo.Not the same pain, but the same feel, if you get me.And I don't(quite) mean porn.
