Of course I miss the convo about Dresden Files. Not that it would have done me much good; I finished the entire series in less than a month, so I already know too much (and yes, I know what a geek I am ).

By the way, my mom's on Dead Beat too, PR. It's so tempting to start spoiling, but I shall resist.

Teehee! I'm well on my way to finishing the series within the month, so you're no more of a geek than I am.
I'm done with Dead Beat, so you could spoil it for me, but most folk here haven't read it, so they would be mad at us.

You win the 'relating strongly to a name doesn't affect you' prize.
Or possibly the 'bit too fond of evil' prize.
One or the other.



Care to elaborate? Having recently finished book 8, after blazing through 1-7, I am deeply interested in anything fellow browncoats have to say on the series. Thinking back I don't remember any twitching. If you have anything spoilery just put it in a tag...or you could use the uncomfortably small font some people have taken to lately.

Select to view spoiler:


The massively evil fallen angel in Death Masks is called Nicodemus. Having met (and become very fond of) this Nicodemus before that Nicodemus, reading the name in the context of such a coldly evil figure made me twitch. That's all.


I should really head back over to the Dresden thread now that I've blazed through so many of the books.

I've gotten most of the way through the books that arrived recently. Now I need to work out if it's better to send off the ones I have, or wait a week or so for a few more to add to the bunch I'll be sending.

CSTS was last night, lots of photos in the relevant thread, although they demonstrate the need for a better camera.

I'm in no hurry; I have plenty of things to read....
Also, if you accept PayPal, I'd be happy to help with the shipping costs.

Bored. Bored and cranky. Want human contact, don't want to leave the house. Want a job that won't expect me to turn it into a career. Want my room to be clean without having to do any work. I think I'm losing my mind.

That was more dramatic than I meant it to be, but it is how I'm feeling.
