TV

God definitely loves me and so does Cartoon Network LA.  I'd totally forgotten they were going to broadcast the Asgardian Saga since Jan 1st, and they're so doing it!!!!  It's at midnight, but I really don't care.  I saw this week the Tholl part and so loved it *.*

I'm writing now and organising some Runya stuff.  Vamp wants to go out the city on Monday and 'till Wednesday, so I feel like leaving this ready.  I start to work on Thursday anyways.

Gotta find another book to read, Dan Brown has bored me to death. Eek.

Eta:  Just shut Labrys down and for the next week. Hopefully, I'll manage to make something nice for its second anniversary ^^

So glad you're enjoying Saint Seiya on TV.

Hope you enjoy your trip. Sounds like a really nice way to end the holidays. If I don't see you later today, then see you when you get back!

I don't know why, but Dan Brown`s writing has that effect on some other people I know. I've never read him, I'm very choosey about what I read these days.

As to books, my taste is kinda weird, I think. Try Thomas Pynchon's "The crying of lot 49", it's a little book, but it's amazing. It's the book I brought with me on my 1986 solo tour of County Galway. I'd love to be able to talk to you about that book, but anything I could say would spoil the surprise.

Mervyn Peake's "Gormenghast" trilogy. Well, it's not a trilogy, there are two principal books. "Titus Groan" and "Gormenghast". The third book is called "Titus alone", but it's a funny little book with little to do with the other two. I can't begin to tell you how much I love this book.

Anything by Flann O'Brien, especially "The poor mouth", or "The third policeman". In the first, the first person naritive is so well written, and so funny and so ingenious, you can't help laughing out loud. I did, on a bus in Dublin. The second is described as "one of the most unusual novels in the English language, comparable only to Alice in Wonderland as an allegory of the absurd". I'd say it's stranger than Kafka, and set in Ireland.

As you can see, my literary taste is rooted in the last century. The most recent book written that I read, was the year 2000 "Round Ireland with a fridge", but I don't need to recommend that one to you, since you've already read it, hehehe.

Best of luck with Labrys. I can't wait to see the new look.

Grá mór.

Getting some books here is kinda hard. I've got along list of books I intend to read, but I'm also taking my time. I've got lots of classics here at home to read, and I'm sure that as soon as I go back to Colombo, I'm gonna start buying more books, jejejeje.

Of course I know "Round Ireland with a Fridge" Lovely reading and most fun ^^

I'll take your word, perhaps I'll find some of those books somewhere ^^

Thank you about Labrys. Half the site is going to disappear, and the rest will be simply organized. I'm not doing much with it, really.

Grá mór.
