Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

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."

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

BWAH!

I thought about Cillian Murphy, too. Hmm. I also thought Jonathan Rhys-Meyers...he's pretty.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Is Anita supposed to be partly Hispanic? For some reason I keep thinking that she is. If so, I'm picturing Girlfight girl who's on Lost now.

If I only had a brain...

Yes, Anita's Hispanic.

Book purchase news--I went to Borders last night and finally used the 10% off coupon and gift card that my boss gave me for Xmas. I got two Jasper Fforde books, the second Tuesday Next novel (I've had The Eyre Affair for years even though I have yet to read it) and The Big Over Easy, the first in the Jack Spratt Investigates series (according to the review I read in EW, it's a cross between Film Noir and nursery rhymes). Looking forward to reading them both!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

You know, it occurred to me that, for all her writerly faults, LKH created a world that stuck with me. I was watching the weather channel this morning and they talked about St. Louis and the first thing that came to mind was the Anita Blake books.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I'm thinking of Eliza Dushku or Jessica Alba for Anita. Dark and attractive to the geekly audience, and both experienced with the ass-kicking.

Suela, d'oh! I cannot imagine why Eliza never crossed my mind! I think she'd be great.

Always Anti-fascist!

That would be cool. Really cool, not marketing-cool.
