Apr. 30th, 2007 04:40 pmNow I have my books on shelves (yay) I can do the books-read-in-a-month thing and have it make sense- I was going to leave this till tomorrow, but actually there's no way I'm gonna get through the last 150 pages of Life: an unauthorised biography tonight- I'm going to make popcorn and watch The Goblet of Fire. So this is ( What I read in April )
I'm finding there are a few odd things missing from my shelves, like, I've got all the Sayerses except Gaudy Night. Birthday list opportunity! (Not that there's usually any great problem in finding shiny stuff for people to get me. The problem is that some of them have feeble excuses like "but I can't afford that!" and "how would I get it to you, anyway?" and "does it even exist?" and "plus, I'm not convinced you would use it for good" and "I'm worried about the look in your eye now." Psssh. So anyway, books are always a useful fallback present. Gaudy Night, for example, has quite a good description of how to strangle someone and... hey, come back!)
I've managed to give myself a sore arm from pulling up $#*!! dandelions. Next weekend the Weedkiller of Doom will be employed. Also I could do with some gardening gloves that are not extremely cheap and useless- oh, the endless traumas that go to make up life.
