The following conversation happened yesterday:

My Girlfriend: Hey can I borrow those fantasy books you are always on about?
Me: *faints with excitement*

So yeah, she now has my copy of GOTM.

That's cool, can imagine how you must feel :-)

It has been proven beyond all reasonable doubt that the most powerful force on Wu is a bunch of messed-up Malazans with Moranth munitions.

Finished my annoyingly difficult PolSci assignment on global political economy. It is now 10 to 1. Now all that's left to do is hand it in tomorrow morning. Hopefully nothing annoying happens in the meantime. *fingers crossed*

Now I'm off to bed, for some much-needed sleep. This makes me happy too.

After about 5 attempts I finally got all the different errors on my computer to stay away for long enough to be able to watch another episode of BSG. Yay!

I have been bummed about not being able to afford to order DoD right now. Then something wonderful happened. My dad borrowed a Glenn Cook book from me, and accidentally god it water damaged. (It's still readable, just a little warped, not even a hardcover.) He knows how I am with books, and is the same way, so feels horrible and insists on buying me a new book to make up for it. Helllllooooooo, amazon.uk! So, 6-10 days until it is mine, all mine. Sweet.

You lucky dog, you.

"Here is light. You will say that it is not a living entity, but you miss the point that it is more, not less. Without occupying space, it fills the universe. It nourishes everything, yet itself feeds upon destruction. We claim to control it, but does it not perhaps cultivate us as a source of food? May it not be that all wood grows so that it can be set ablaze, and that men and women are born to kindle fires?"

I've never been so happy to get a booked messed up. The Glenn Cook book isn't even ruined, just slightly jacked. It's a worthy sacrifice to get the newest Erikson. Of course, I'll then have to send it to Missouri so my dad can read it too, but that's reasonable, I suppose.

That's a good idea. If I play my cards right, he could subsidize me through the rest of the series. He goes on fishing trips to Canadaland every year, which is how the other book got messed up. I'll send him a new book for every trip.

I think happy beer doesn't mean the same thing in English as it does in Danish :thumbsup:

Unless you typed that from a stripclub.

I'm about to go to work. Now, normally I wouldn't be happy about this, but getting paid (a lot of) cash in hand for only an hour's work mitigates this enormously.

There's only one episode of the Venture Brothers I haven't seen. I haven't found anywhere to borrow it or watch it on the internet. I happened to turn on the tv, and it is coming on as we speak. Excellent.
