newmoonstarI. HATE. COLD. WEATHER.
Okay, so it's not even that cold. It hasn't even snowed yet. But it's still too darn cold. And because my bedroom is the corner bedroom, no matter how much I turn up the heat it is always freezing in there. And because of this I can never get to sleep because I'm too distracted by how cold my feet are. I put on socks, but this does very little. So I'm always tired. This is why I hate winter. I know, I should be thankful that I don't live in Alaska or something, but it's much more comforting to complain. ;-D
Anyhoo, I must thank Kelly for Saturday's kind scnoogles! :-D
It surprises me not that Lara and Mikky still have a following. Those were great stories! And you know of my love of Kosma and DITD! It is my belief that DITD is your best work. It is because of that, more than anything, that I truly believe you are a great writer and can do anything. You should publish DITD! Of course you'd probably have to change Vlad's name for legal reasons, but other than that you absolutely could. Seriously. I really love that story and I thank you for letting me read it. Trust me, all the reading and reviewing us girls did in the old days was a labor of love. I SO look forward to reading any new stories you may have coming up. :)
On the subject of stories, since I've been getting an encouraging response to the Percy fic, and it has been suggested to me that I post it, I will look into doing so. Once I have, I'll have a link to it or something so that anyone who's interested can read it. :)
I've written a little more on the Percy fic, (which is actually called "Percy's Holiday", so I might as well refer to it as that) but I haven't finished the second part because I've been working on 'the French story' (which doesn't even have a working title so that's what I refer to it as). I really want to get back to "Percy's Holiday" though because it's so much fun to write. I love the Weasleys and it's so much fun to write about them. Whenever I read the HP books, the fun J.K. Rowling must have been having writing them just drips from the page. I wish I had original characters that were that much fun. Well, the Noreen and the Gearys are, but it'll be ages before I get to writing "Blue Skies". It makes me so anxious when I think of the stories I'm going to write, but I have to wait until I finish 'the French story'. If I write more than one novel at the same time they both suffer. But oh, I'm babbling!!! Must stop!
I took a quiz a little bit ago, and according to it, I'm Mrs. Ronald Weasley. Somehow this satisfies me immensley. I know it sounds odd, but somehow, I think I'd be happier with Ron than Harry. It makes absolutley NO sense to me, either.
Ron-mania seems to be going around, eh?
I'm wondering if I should go on to "Anne's House of Dreams" now that I've finished "Anne of Windy Poplars" or if I should read one of L.M. Montgomery's other books first. I've always had a sneaking desire to read "Magic for Marigold", but the library doesn't have it. Ideas?
Have rambled far too long for one day. I must now spare the world from any more of my random musings, and go read some Narnia. This is actually the first time I've read "The Magician's Nephew". The books were numbered differently when I first started reading them. How old does that make me feel? ;-D
