I don't have to ask ya

So I drew a little comic and inked it and put it on deviantart, for lack of other ideas. It's looking very weird to me right now. The computer is making it weird.

School's in for winter. School's in forever. I've been freaking out in a big powerful way about the possibility of stress this fall, but so far I'm still on my feet. It's a big transition from sitting on my ass. My ass is lost without me sitting on it.

I'm obsessed with Library Thing. I know this is old news, but I only recently realized how incredibly comforting it is to enter ISBN numbers and choose from huge selections of cover scans. I've entered about 150 of my books so far, which means I've got a long way to go, because I'm a person who can't let go of a book I've read once, even if it sucked and I'll never read it again and Richard Rorty is on the cover with his shirt unbuttoned at the neck.

Speaking of books, I went into an used bookstore on the way home today and bought four more. Normally I'd let that go without posting about it, but LIBRARY THING inspires me to list them for you. Ahem: Weetzie Bat by Francesca Lia Block (odd and good, read it last year so must own it), Moominvalley in November (because it has a neat 1976 cover and I can't have enough copies? in case of fire?) Castle in the Air by Diana Wynne Jones (I'm into her stuff right now and it's supposedly the sequel to Howl's Moving Castle, but more Aladdin-y, so okay), and Knight's Castle by Edward Eager (never heard of him, but Quentin Blake did the cover and the first page was nice). They're all kids books and all for cheap. Hooray for cheap.

I'm going to Saturna this weekend. It's my mum's birthday on the 13th and she's going to be there part of the time. Last weekend I went to Bowen with Marian, Sachi, Kimi, Judah, Juniper, Moss, and Happy. There was wonderful food and company and some serious moobs supplied by the Buddha baby. Sachi described it best. I'm guessing that no matter how beautiful it is on Saturna, it'll still seem very lonely alone. Except for my mum and all. You know.

I get back Monday morning at 9:20am. So I'll have forty minutes to get from the ferry terminal to Non-Fiction 405 at 10. S-s-super sonic? Yes.
