I am, of course, the last person to find out: HBO turns A Song of Ice and Fire into fantasy series fdsfhsfslakfhsk W00T!!!!!!!!!!!! (More on GRRM's own LJ.)

Have a gazillion things to do but don't know where to start.

As a "racial minority" myself, I can't decide if what's happening on Celeb BB is actually "racism" or not. >_> When you dislike someone, everything they say, do, and are, becomes wrong. If Shilpa'd been Scottish they'd make fun of her Scottish accent and say she deep fries all her food and refer to her as "the Scot". A lot of people say things like that, but do the Scottish call us on it? People mimic the way George Bush speaks and make fun of him, is that discrimination enough to be called upon? Hmmmm. Food for thought.

I haven't been able to order the posters in time, sorry. But I'll print A3 of the stuff anyway, because I can!

[edit] also, take extra care when travelling tomorrow, and remember your brolly, just in case.

I really don't know how detailed they're going to go with the TV series... the story is so huge!

Can't wait to see what the cast looks like.

I haven't yet, but I plan on getting it anyway ^^

it'll probably be like Battlestar galactica where to afford effects they've got a lot of canadians who will work for soup but get better quickly, with two character actors who are really good but about thirty years past their prime.
I wanna see Ned Stark and Jaime and wonder if Renly is as gay as he seems to read.

I have to send a book to Liz which I've been promising for weeks, I can pop it in the same parcel, save you the bother of finding it.
I'll probably post it Saturday, if you can get it off her XP because it is really good.
