It was actually pretty good once you get your head around the slightly surreal world the author has created. I wound up really enjoying it and will probably get the next one in the series once my to read pile has gone down a bit

Next on the list is the graphic novel of Guilty Pleasures by Laurell K. Hamilton. Yeah, I know, but the art is insanely pretty and the earlier books really aren't that bad.

SPN stuff

I watched It's The Great Pumpkin, Sam Winchester last night so I could look for screencaps for a Halloween header. This is after I watched it at the weekend with flickums and artharsil too.

It's a really good episode and the more I watch it the more I love it. I think it's probably in my top five for the season.

flickums enjoyed Yellow Fever a lot and last night she found this rather amusing little thing on youtube

I really do miss the old days of Smallville.

It's kind of weird watching S4 again now that I'm fully in the SPN fandom and not just a casual viewer. It's kind of a shame Jason's main purpose was to make Lana look good.

Bleh!

Still trying desperately to fend off this stupid cold. Sore throat has now progressed into a cough but I still don't feel particularly ill. It's just annoying more than anything.

Went out and met up with kafers tonight for Mead Wednesday. Declined to drink any actual mead and had beer instead. Then someone knocked over a glass and I wound up with mead in my lap. I suspect it was karma or something. LOL.

None of the usual Jorvik crowd were there so had to make small talk with a bunch of people I didn't know. Talked about where I work and my fangirling tendencies and then someone said 'so, apart from where you work and liking a lot of TV tell us something else about yourself'

I couldn't think of anything :(

When did I become a social failure?

The thing is I do have a lot of interests. I like to travel, I like photography, I read a lot. My mind just went totally blank. I must have come across as some weird recluse who spends all their free time in front of the TV.
