but, but, but. GREYS.

It just sunk in to me that since my parents' dsl is in the library, and the TV is in the living room -- the total opposite side of the house -- tonight is going to be the first time EVER that I watch Grey's Anatomy without having fox1013 on instant messenger with me for constant discussion and analyzation at the exact same time.

THAT IS SO NOT COOL, PEOPLE. SERIOUSLY.

And on the Christmas episode, of all things!

On a totally unrelated note: I've heard Dorothy Dunnett praised to the skies eight million times, so I just picked up one of her books to try for the first time. So I'm about sixty pages into The Game of Kings now, and my question is this: when does it stop being so boring? Is it soon? I hope it's soon.

Edited an hour later: Wow, I TOTALLY just used the word "analyzation" in that first paragraph. Um, hi! I'm smart! Really! I go to college and everything!

Aw.

I can spoil you for my favorite parts and my McDreamy Jackass Of The Week Line if you want, so you can feel them with me! Or, um, I can just be online at 11 your time so you can react at me then.

*misses you ALREADY*

Surfing through by way of friendsfriends.

Dorothy Dunnett nevers stops being boring. The Kind Hereafter is the only book of hers I ever found readable. Many of my friends (whose opinions I respect) love her, but I just can't get through a single book (yeah, I didn't even finish The Kind Hereafter).

Heh. Well, that sucks!

I had a boss who forced me to read Dunnett, and it was several books in (maybe the third?) before I really got into it, but I thought it totally paid off eventually. I spent most of the first book just figuring out the history and politics and alliances. They also worked better for me in several-hour chunks, instead of 30-minute-commute nibbles.

Hmm. I'm not sure I'm willing to invest the time for the first 1000 pages, you know? Even if it does end up really good. Whatever, I'll give it a bit longer.

It took me a couple hundred pages, but getting into that book hauled me through the whole series, so it was worth it.
