Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Or NOT asking and expecting it to be okay.
Wimbledon: Wow. You know, I don't think I've ever seen Gasquet play before. At least he gets to wait 'til Noon to play Federer. It should be a good match. And I also hope that Djokovic is nicely rested for his match with Nadal.
Okay, this is funnier. From Borders:

This is pathetic, but I really want to go into the Barnes & Noble in Pasadena and just stare at the book.
Stare at a WHOLE BUNCH OF THEM!
That would be awesome.
Now, if you start giggling and jumping up and down and screeching "that's my book! that's my book!" you'd be verging toward something a little more sociall unacceptable... but still not pathetic.
(Unless you're Stephen King -- because he really should be over it by now)
What time are you going juliana? I'm going to be SF bound this evening...
6:30 - 7ish. You gonna be around? I have to pop home and measure space in my apartment, since there's a chair on clearance at Cost Plus (right next door to B&N!) that I kinda like.
I was gonna go home for lunch, but I think I need to go to B&N instead.
I'm on the phone with Mike at the B&N in Ann Arbor and he is PUTTING MY COPY ON HOLD RIGHT NOW!
I might even buy 2! Or 5! Or 10!
I MIGHT BUY THEM ALL.
I MIGHT BUY THEM ALL.
...and she just might be crazy enough to do it.
Gah, I have to be at Moscone by 6pm. Oh, well. I know my All-Star excitement is silly compared to HAVING A BOOK IN A BOOKSTORE. But I am with you on the bouncy.
I have the book on order with Amazon. I think I'll buy it in the store and maybe give my Amazon copy to a friend.
(I originally ordered one on Amazon to help increase the book's ranking and maybe increase the buzz.)
