I think I’ve said it before, but it’s always worth saying again.
‘THE INTERNET IS EVIL’
Especially the internet places where I can click a button and a week later a package magically appears in my mailbox. At the moment I’m reading ‘Wicked: The life and times of the Wicked Witch of the West’ by Gregory Maguire, and it’s absolutely brilliant. So much so that I limit myself to reading 20 pages a day to make it last longer. This morning I was mooching about in amazon having a look at what other books Mr. Maguire has written and before I knew it I’d ordered ‘Son of a Witch’ and ‘Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister’. In addition I also threw in Roman Dirge’s ‘The Cat with the Really Big head’ and two Edward Gorey books: ‘Gashlycrumb Tinies’ and ‘Amphigorey Also’.
I’m not even going to bore you with the length of my wishlist.
Oh My.

Hello from Seattle, the land of sunshine. (At least today.)

The other day a book showed up at my doorstep that I didn’t even remember ordering.
Never drink and buy online…
