monday's child has learned to tie his bootlace, see how they run
LOOOK, I tell you, at the set of Forsaken/TMBG icons ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
runpunkrun made. I'm wearing one right now, as a matter of fact, and I think it brings out the screaming Argonauts in my eyes. Just you wait, also, I tell ya, till Punk and I let loose with our ITEOTWAWKI(AIFF) icon set, birds, snakes, aeroplanes and all.
The best part of all this comes Tuesday, when, in the great name ofsorlklewis, Internet once returns to the House of Raging Women. We should be online Tuesday night, and boy howdy, y'all just WAIT and see what sort of virtual ass we kick.
LJ says there are two of us who list "Josephine Humphreys" as an interest, but, as always, both of us are me. Let this be a left-handed rec to anyone interested to read her holy triad of novels, Dreams of Sleep (being the story of a woman, her daughter, and their babysitter, who saddle up in a station wagon and run away), Rich in Love (being the story of the hyperintellectual, hyperindependent Odoms of South Carolina as told by 17-year-old Lucille -- think The Royal Tenenbaums in a spun sugar drawling plantation), and The Fireman's Fair (being the story of a lawyer who dropped everything to go live on an island and play golf until a hurricane blows it all away, leaving Rob [THE finest first-person male narrator written by a female author I have ever read] nothing but his dog and the pirate's wife). She slips under the radar, Humphreys, and I don't think she should, because she just fucking nails it and she writes with the wit and affection of a wry, knowing smile.
LJ says there's only *one* of us who lists "Punk Maneuverability" as an interest, but I'll bet we can change that right here and now. See,
How common are sabine101's interests
(*You should also feel free to ask me about any of my Interests, should you be interested.)
Shox is cooking dinner for us, or so he claims, and we're still deciding whether to make the schlep down to Orange County tonight to see the WWS show or to wait here and see if Jason, Chris and Lij make a better offer. Everything, as always, up in the air till the last minute.
But more importantly, I am a good three-fourths of the way done with The Dark Tower VII as read on my iPod by George Guidall, and, holy fuck, in the name of the turtle, DUDE, this book is SO GODDAMNED SAD.wax_jism, stand by, and when I'm done I promise to find you so we can dissect appropriately over AIM. I've listened to the whole DT series on tape, but I nearly copped out with this one and bought the book instead -- I was at the airport, about to board the plane to NY, and one thing led to another, you know how it goes. Then, of course, I landed in NY, downloaded the thing, loaded it onto Mom's iPod, and here we are again. Sure, I'm out $35 for the hardback, but it was worth it. I'm nearing track 500 of 796...we're in NY and Roland just left the spoiler building to go meet back up with Irene. More on this story, naturally, as it unfolds.
In the name of the ka-tet of 19 and the ka-tet of the Rose, I remain, as always,

I will make Punk one of my interests if you read my snippet of original fiction I just posted. Yes?

Scanning over your lists of interest, I note we have several others in common that I missed on first glance. "Northern Exposure" (Dr. Fleischman! Why, oh why did you have to leave and ruin the show?!?) and M*A*S*H* (growing up, my older brother insisted we watch it, but after a while, I admit, I fell in love! My first crush was on Radar, then later on Hawkeye! *blush!*). Oh! And would "Janeway/Seven" be as in 'Captain Janeway' and "Seven of Nine"? And would that "/" be as in, slash-slash? There's a pairing I would have never imagined! o_O!
We should be online Tuesday night, and boy howdy, y'all just WAIT and see what sort of virtual ass we kick.
Can't wait!
