Stolen from Jack.


The Big Read thinks the average adult has only read six of the top 100 books they've printed below.

01. Look at the list and bold those you have read.
02. Italicise those you intend to read
03. Underline the books you LOVE.
04. Reprint this list in your own LJ so we can try and track down these people who've only read 6 and force books upon them.

also added
05. Add a number in parens (2) for the number of attempts you made on books you just couldn't finish
06. Place a * next to the ones you hated
07. Place a C next to the ones you cheated on and read the Cliff Notes.

 

 

Bah!

So I've bought a book. It also happens to be one I don't particularly like. I tried reading it, got about two chapters in, and gave up. Went to look for something more interesting. I paid twenty dollars for this book yesterday. Not only that, but it's sticky and smells like fruit punch. Go me. -_-
In other library-ish news, I was going to renew a book this morning online when I noticed it said I had five overdue books. Five? wtf? Now I know, I know I returned all my books yesterday except one. This doesn't make any sense at all, and I'm not about to be fined for books that I returned on time. Now I have to call the library tomorrow or something (didn't have time this morning, and it closes before I'm off work) and start to bitch until they remove the fines. Oh joy.
It was so freaking nice out today. It was such a pity I had to work, because I could have spent the whole day outside. Doing yardwork. :P No, I'm kididng. I probably would've been on the computer all day, since I've been on all night. Well, two hours of the night. Once I'd stopped reading this spiffing book about a lady who has magic she can't control, and has to curse things. Giant killer grapefruit. I was laughing soo hard, and I think it was supposed to be serious. I stopped reading once I thought it was getting serious and came down here.
Swing tomorrow! Hurrah! And random pre-Beltaine/Buffy marathon goodness. Though it's supposed to rain, so there may not be a fire. =(

Random quotes that I can remember from last week:
Me: That's a lot of salt.
Thal: Yeah, what were they going to use it for, virgin sacrifices?
Me: What, pack her up in salt and save her for later?
Thal: -_-;;;

Julie: [gets water on herself] I wet myself.
Mary: [yells] Julie wet herself!
