Good evening all!
How is everyone on this fine and starry eve? :)
I am offering my
Fish Called Wanda dvd or possibly an Amazon gift certificate to anyone who would like to buy me a paid account. I desperately need new icons, especially Billeh and Neil Gaiman related ones (Good Omens icons, whooot!). So if you'd like to help me out, I'd be very grateful.
And you
do want me to have a beautiful and exciting journal, don't you? Course you do! *G*
And speaking of
Good Omens...I found a GO community today! YEAH! It's called
lower_tadfield and everyone should join. I think it's brand new, because there aren't many members, but we can change that! Show your love for Crowley and Aziraphale, the sweetest, sexiest, most adorably ineffable angel and daemon who ever descended to earth. Go on, the Nevvie commands you! ;-)
I also, god help me, joined a GO rpg. *grins sheepishly* I can't believe I am actually watching a LiveJournal rpg, something I swore I would never do. But hey, right now I am finding it fun and interesting. Lets see how long it lasts. *smirks* It's called
buggerallethis, if you'd like to see for yourself. Cute name, neh? :)
I finished
Carl Hiaasen's new book,
Basket Case in a day and a half of reading on the train, which is pretty good for a 500 page novel. *grins* If you haven't discovered the brilliance of Hiaasen yet, I really must insist that you go out and buy one of his books right away. (I suggest
Tourist Season or
Native Tongue, they're my favourites.) He writes humourous mysteries that are infamous for their bizarre cast of characters (some personal favourites include a hit-man with a face like a bowl of rice krispies and a weed whacker attached to his arm, and the roadkill eating ex-Governor of Florida fondly known as 'Skink'), as well as their poignant environmental messages. Hiaasen has lived in Florida all his life, and in all his books he looks with sad eyes at the wanton destruction of his homeland in the name of corporate greed. He's never preachy, but always hilarious and utterly compelling. And if you'd enjoy reading about a theiving bodyguard who is so addicted to steroids he sucks them through an IV like a straw, and meets with a very
indecent end being fucked to death by a randy dolphin, then he's the author for you. :)
If they told you I'm mad, then they lied. I'm odd, but it isn't compulsive. I'm the triolet, bursting with pride; If they told you I'm mad, then they lied. No, it isn't obsessive. Now hide All the spoons or I might get convulsive. If they told you I'm mad then they lied. I'm odd, but it isn't compulsive. | What Poetry Form Are You?

This is the coolest quiz I've ever seen. And so accurate too! Poetry is good for you. :)
