Re: What books are you reading?
Not, reading, but counting my books, actually... Well, I just finished... I`ve got over 16 000 books at home...
I probably read half of them and I` m planning to read the second half as soon as a I have some free time... I guess it means I`m reall weird...

Sing what you can`t say
Forget what you can`t play
Never sigh for a better world
It`s already composed played and told
I`m sorry
And you... I wish I didn`t feel for you anymore

Re: What books are you reading?
Gateway Fredrick Pohl
one of the first sci fi novels I was blown away by. fun to revisit after 25 yrs.
If You Want to Write, Brenda Ueland
what a wonderful encouraging book. its been recommended many times, but I finally picked it up
Blood Sucking Fiends Christopher Moore
again, recommended as a very funny author, but OMG it really is spit-out-your-coffee hilarious. a vampire girl in San Francisco. goes downhill at dizzying speed from there.

Re: What books are you reading?
Not really reading but browsing through my V4V Gn, reading some fave Yeats poems, and feel a desire to go through my Chaucer.

I usually feel a desire to squooble my Chaucer:
 (He got the name, FWIW, because whilst I was trying to think of his name, I found him lying on the bottom shelf of the bookshelves where I keep my DVDs. I said, "Ah, a literary cat, eh?" and ol' Geoffrey was the first to come to mind.)
I'm into the third Unfortunate Events book, "The Wide Window."

 Thanks!

Can I give Chaucie a wittle nuzzle, huh? Pweeeese?
*clears throat, tries to look haughty* That's "Sir Geoffrey," if you please. (He's my boy who tends to look cat-ly "superior." Except when he's whining for food. Or zooming coon-tailed after a toy at midnight. Or.... geesh, he really doesn't maintain his dignity very well, now I think about it.) Nuzzle away! And since it's virtual, you can also go back in time and nuzzle Keegan the day he was adopted (when he was 10 weeks old).

The only pets I ever had were two goldfish--Popeye and Olive Oil--and they ended up floating so no pets for me. LOL
*nods* I did goldfish when I was little - I had so many die on me that there was a family joke that I was going to have to start naming them with numbers.
Now, back to books....
I haven't made any progress on The Wide Window since my last post.

Awwwwww. Adorable alert!
Oh, ahem, sorry "Sir" Chaucer. LOL
Reading stuff for work that's (in my best Michael Palin voice) incredibly dull, dull, dull, dull, dull, and boring, and oh so duuulllllll!
