Journal Love

[paragraphs]

I love this lj. I do. I love Nick for helping me make it beautiful. I can't believe how little I post these days. Am I that busy? Truly? Too busy to sit down and tap something out real quick, read my flist?

Well, sorta.

So, with that in mind and inspired by N's doing it, I have cleaned my flist, nuking a bunch of stuff I just don't have time for. I took a few people off too. As I was doing so, I paused over dear Karen's, realizing that she will now be on here forever, though she is gone. I left her friended, though there will be no more posts. I always smile when I think of her. She was some kind of special.

I have recently added a few folks, some of my fellow Seaside friends. Heya there, kiddos!

And now, I am yawning and think I am going to curl up and read awhile. Finishing up THE QUEEN'S FOOL by Philippa Gregory. Damn, I like her writing. Totally unlike what I ever thought I'd like--a happy accident. Next up though is a book called THE BOOK THIEF by Markus Zusak. Nick is reading it too. I think he still is, anyway.

Oh, he is home from walking over the new bridge in Germany. Too cool. So now I must trot off--time to play!

Ooh, that is a good book! First one I read by her, and I'm glad it was. The Other Boleyn Girl and her other books are good as well, but Queen's Fool has a special place in my heart.

Oh yay! You understand! That is great! It almost borders on fantasy and I just LOVE Hannah. Everything about her--the kind of person she is, her past, the intrigue, her visions...just ahhh. It is one of the books that I have the "oh, I wish I'd written that!" thing going. I read The Other Boleyn Girl first, then got this one, and next after Book Thief, another of Gregory's.
