When two fit, it makes you think
I got the cute one, my woman
She says, "Lovin's all I bring"
And it's her loving that's a wonderful thing.
Lovin' yes we are, it's such a wonderful thing
When two fit it makes you think
See us both in the black
She lays on me so relaxed.

I just finished a reread of Straub's Ghost Story. I had read it when it first came out and couple times afterwards, but I hadn't picked it up for more than ten years. I'd forgotten just how great it was, although the ending was a bit of a letdown.
I'm also reading Bev Vincent's Illustrated King Companion. A great book. I'm taking my time--about a chapter every couple days--and not even taking the extra stuff out of the book until I've finished the read. Then I'm going to have even more fun!

Just finished The Giver by Lois Lowry and am now reading Gathering Blue by the same author.

but you will.
i'm glad it finally got there.
isn't it good
i read the first one, it was ok. not mind blowing brilliant, but that does not happen very often. So yeah it was ok, need to get the second one now
moores sent by rosies are sitting on bears' shelves... bears are all anticipation... soon, when they are through with the current reading that keeps piling up, they will get down to Lamb!have you ever read any of jim butcher's dresden files series? or anything by christopher moore? i loved lamb and practical demonkeeping. also, the stupidest angel, and. . . oh hell, anything by moore is worth reading.
Ask not what bears can do for you, but what you can do for bears. (razz)
When one is in agreement with bears one is always correct. (mae)
bears are back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm currently reading Joe Hill's 20th Century Ghosts

Oh, that's a great book. My favorite story was Pop Art.

^ Pop Art was very strange... I don't really know did I like it or not. It's... diffirent. I just finished reading "Where the Locust Sing", that was quite chilling tale.

I have jury duty tomorrow () and I'm bringing The Great Gatsby, which I've somehow never read before and was told I'll like (I hate when I haven't read books like that that everyone has read), and I'm also bringing Jitterbug Perfume, since my brother thinks I'll be done with Gatsby before I'm done with jury duty
I had my infatuations, but we both know in our hearts who is the sole love of my short, bright life.
i'm taking partial credit for that one.
i owed you one for the time traveler's wife
I have jury duty tomorrow (i'm gonna go ahead and grab the rest of that credit.i'm taking partial credit for that one.
