This crunchie feeling is just plain wrong!
Howdy folks, anything new and exciting going on with you lot. I’m all out of whack with the days of the week. I keep thinking that today is Friday; it isn’t. Today is Thursday[1] But I’ve got that Friday feeling[2] Albeit[3] one that is dampened cause I know it is premature.
I think I shall have a delightful[4] weekend of doing nothing at all[5] And it is a long weekend. I can’t wait. Cause you know the way you have nothing to do for ages and ages and then suddenly everything happens at once. For the past two weeks I’ve had places to go and people to see almost every single day. It’s fun, don’t get me wrong, but tiring. A long lie in and a relaxing weekend of telly sounds like a most excellent plan.
*yawn*
I’ve also been bold[6] and gone and bought books. There is an order from Amazon on its way, or at least it will be on its way, but not til August[7] cause I’ve pre-ordered Breaking Dawn by Stephanie Meyer[8] And yesterday I wandered around Easons and came across The Dragon Waiting by John M. Ford. Okay, it was really its new cover that got my attention. It has been republished in Orion’s Fantasy Masterworks series and it looks purty. So I picked it up and read the first few pages. Alternate history with a bit of fantasy thrown in. Sounds like my kind of book. And I made with more wandering about and I spotted Empire of Ivory by Namoi Novik. The 4th in the Temeraire series, which I’d meant to pick up ages ago, but then forgot, or never knew, that it had been published in paperback. Its a different cover style than my other books in that series though…
