Reading Update
Picture This: The Near-Sighted Monkey Book by Lynda Barry. Another good illustrated book from Lynda Barry – this one focuses mostly on drawing.
The Bloodline Feud (The Merchant Princes #1-#2) by Charles Stross. I kept tripping over the language a bit at the beginning (it seemed overly descriptive), but I got completely sucked into the story anyway and stayed up too late to finish it. So!
The Clan Corporate (The Merchant Princes #3) by Charles Stross. Make sure you have the next book on hand, because this ends on a really evil cliffhanger!
*BLAAAAAAAAANK* -Chaos (totally alive – I checked)
Chris- We’ve had no snow- and mild temps. Huh.
Have a good weekend.

Those baby shower cakes! O.O
Nice to know about NASA’s Day of Remembrance. And RIP to Ursula K Le Guin and Rosie the Riveter. 🙁 Time to re-read Earthsea.
I love those bookstores! I need to find more of my local neat bookstores, too, rather than just drooling over ones in different countries.
Wow. The Wizarding America link… it’s just too much. (Awesome, but too much.)
A recent post from Nicole..My Life in Books Tag
suddenly I am seized with an urge to go to Lisbon and visit Livraria Bertrand. Bonus points: my great-great-great-great-grandfather was Portugese. To some tiny extent, I *belong* in that bookstore.
I shall now respond to all pregnancy announcements with “Congratulations on making a human” (I’m going to leave out “with your genitals”. Even I wouldn’t say that)
I read the American wizard thing, did not buy the not being pureblood wizards not looking down on folk
