*bad blogger*
that would be me...
just been working and avoiding Nano-ness...
anywho...
I took my parents and my bro to Chinatown on Sunday (for Dim Sum). I had a nice time :) I hope they did too...It was for their collective birthdays after all.
The Man's b-day is coming up on Friday and although I have a few ideas for gifties I'm being a waffle on the entire gift thing in general. I am quite uncertain about what constitutes the ideal present.
but anyway...
I finished reading Perdido Street Station a few weeks back, and I loved it. Except I felt let down by the ending. It was disturbing and sad and appropriate yet...I can't help wishing that it had been less gloomy and less depressing.
Just needed to rant about that.
I just finished reading the first graphic novel of "League of Extraordinary Gentlemen". (The Moore comic book) What a gem! I is campy and witty. Full of literary references more and less obscure. I am looking forward to reading more of it.
I also read "Mr Punch" recently. (Can you tell I've been in the mood for comics?) It was written by Neil Gaiman and illustrated by Dave McKean. Weird weird weird! Yet, I could not stop myself from being drawn into the story. The way the text and the images interacted was masterful...A must read again...Later.
On a different note, I started playing in a new campaign...Well we did introductions of characters. It should be interesting, all of our characters are chaotic (a rollercoaster ride waiting to happen) :D I must admit that my character is not fleshed out to my liking yet...I'm quite unsure of how to play her...she is not what I had envisioned...but I guess time will tell...
enough about me, what about all of you?
;)
