bending_sickleI have betas! I am deliriously happy about this.**
Brother's crossing the pond later this month, though he'll have to wander about Madrid before visisting me. That's ok, I can wait. I've only been expecting him to come visist for a year. Mom'll come round around that time as well. Ah, visitors. :)
Now reading The Big Over Easy and every time I shut the book, I am forced to exclaim, "I love Jasper Fforde." For yea, the man is funny.
Example:
"He spent the greater part of his life campaigning to have respelt those words that look as though they are spelt wrongly but aren't. [...] Oh, skiing, vacuum, freest, eczema, gnu, diarrhoea, that sort of thing. He also thouht "abbreviation" was too long for its meaning,that "monosyllable" should have one syllable, "dyslexic" should be renamed "O" and "unspeakable" should be respelt "unsfzpxable"."

** Now, of course, I really seriously need to work on the Jayne-fic.
