Oooh!
Lorne: Take care of yourself and ah, make sure fluffy is getting enough love. Gunn: Did he have anything? Fred: No. And who's fluffy? Are you fluffy? Gunn: He called me fluffy? Fred: He said make sure…wait. You don't think he was referring to anything of mine that's fluffy, do you? Because that would just be inappropriate.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Our wings are not tired.
The BBC is producing the first two books of Tana French's Dublin Murder Squad series
That is exciting. I feel they can be done right.
It has been great having DH here, but he really cuts into my reading time. Big hopes for today because he has gone to my nephew's football game. Now to get off the computer and onto my Nook!

You guys! Thanks to a random Etsy search, I am getting a silkscreened portrait of Ray Bradbury, made with the text of "The Homecoming" (my favorite work by him), and SIGNED BY BRADBURY. [link]

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I feel like others may appreciate this, from my current read:
"When you are in the middle of a story it isn't a story at all, but only a confusion; a dark roaring, a blindness, a wreckage of shattered glass and splintered wood; like a house in a whirlwind, or else a boat crushed by the icebergs or swept over the rapids, and all aboard powerless to stop it. It's only afterwards that it becomes anything like a story at all. When your are telling it, to yourself or to someone else."

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
So true.
I like the idea that a lot of our cognition is turning things (events, sensory inputs, whatever) into stories. That that's kind of what being human is all about.
