Random miscellany

[daemonluna]

First off, random quote-link-whatever: "Libraries are really the Napster of the hardcopy world." This bit of indignation comes from a letter in response to a CBC column about used book stores. Don't MAKE me use my what-a-library-is-good-for rant...

Amusing incident #1: When long-time friend Joan described to me a character from a book she was reading as a "gentleman of the slash persuasion."

Amusing incident #2: When you shut off our car, or more specifically, the radio, the antenna retracts and goes thump-thump-thump-thump. The first time Anna was in the car and heard this, she jumped and yelled, "What the hell was that?" troutkitty proceeded to reassure her that there was no body in the trunk. Anna made her get out (in -30C weather), open the trunk, and let her check. *g*

Yay-for-me news: going to do a trial book review for VOYA, as a volunteer reviewer.

Vaguely annoying news: This is Wonderland AND Rick Mercer's Monday Report were pre-empted by the stupid hockey game. And I think I'm getting a cold.

Re-reading American Gods. Neil Gaiman tells the best stories.
