Well, I fell asleep after lunch - I'm starting to think eating certain things makes me sleepier than others, I need to make notes when I turn into a zombie after lunch. x.x
But! No guilt, because I did good this weekend. ^^ And now I have cleaning/bookshelving to look forward to when I get up, and I might as well stuff in as much cleaning as possible while I'm enjoying it.

Bold the books you have read
Italicize the books you had read to you as a child and cannot remember
Underline the books you intend to read
I should say I don't remember having anything read to me beyound the simple primer-stuff? What I remember, vaugely, is feeling impatient. Very very impatient. Like trying to remember is making my hands itch, why is there no book in them!
This is probably why reading is one of the things I learned to do fastest. ^^;

Now he has to go learn to be British! What he eventually learns is that he is at once both and niether, and will never be comfortable in either world. And yes, there is this wonderful love story in there too, but it's just - something that happens to be there, rather than something you're beat over the head with. *heartshearts*

Book Meme - from

Bold the books you have read
Italicize the books you had read to you as a child and cannot remember
Underline the books you intend to read
I should say I don't remember having anything read to me beyound the simple primer-stuff? What I remember, vaugely, is feeling impatient. Very very impatient. Like trying to remember is making my hands itch, why is there no book in them!

Now he has to go learn to be British! What he eventually learns is that he is at once both and niether, and will never be comfortable in either world.
