aack.  I thought I was bad by not starting it until last week.

READ IT!  I want to know what you think of it.

I think so, Brain, but how will we get the Spice Girls into the paella?

I keep starting books and not finishing them, or even getting 1/4 through them before the TV or internet distracts me.

i usually read a lot, but this summer i've been plowing through books like some kind of maniac. i'm reading everything like it's harry potter. i just finished Winds of War and then War and Remembrance, and then last weekend read another novel called The Little Friend which was good but incredibly bleak.

i've come to the conclusion that it's not that i don't like tv. it's that i actually can't watch tv. it makes me anxious, i keep wanting to do something else. i totally understand people who do stuff like knit and watch tv. that i could maybe do. except i don't know how to knit.

I have the TV on all the time, and I never know what's going on. There was a Robert Redford and George Segal movie on the other day, and I would notice it every 20 minutes or so.

That said, I still can't focus on reading. Part of the problem is that I need glasses pretty bad.

I thought it was a decent book, one of the better in the series.


...And I don't mind if someone doesn't like the series, I thought the first two movies were shit, but I still speak with people who loved them...

BTW, our daughter is reading from the "Magic Treehouse" series. She likes them (which is cool) but they have some of the worst mechanics I've ever seen. ("Worst sentence structure. Ever." ...or similar) I wish Theodore Geisel was still kicking... :'(
I was just wondering...

Timothy loves the Series of Unfortunate Events books.  I think he only has like 3 of the 11 left to read.
we should have kept the quote pyramid up to rape Jessie in the face.

I haven't seen the movie or read the books, but I have a really cute Series of Unfortunate Events game on my phone.

If I were 15, I'd think Cedric was hot.

I think I'll do so today, seeing as I'm feeling the draw of the bookstore.

WARNING: SPOILER IN LINK!

This arrived at my house on Saturday.  I wish I had gotten it in time for the roomies party as there were tons of Harry Potter fans there.  :(

I don't know why people think he's so cute.  He's not.  At all.  Plus, he's underage.

He totally looks like my friend Nikki in that picture.  I wonder if she's really Harry Potter?
