He's... like he is in the photos XD Looks genki despite having just arrive from Birmingham (I think) this morning. He's doing 2 cities a day I heard, and have to go to Glasgow tomorrow or something. Didn't hear him read, was in a long queue outside Forbidden Planet, got inside and got him to sign, had a quick chat (that the big book's for friend in Germany, and the small one (one of his first ones) is for me XD) and was gone. XD
^_______^ Well, his beard was more.... wild than it is in that photo on his website XD
It's "A Game of Thrones". I got chatting with this really cool girl when queueing, and asked her which one's the first in the series, and she said this one ^^
It was SO LUCKY it didn't rain. Nearly did, several times *snicker*
Oh, you're gonna have fun, then, during your possible downtime (wah :(). Next to you, GRRM's the only author I know who seems to have fun killing of his major characters.
:O I still can't believe it! You queued! *hugs!!!*
*breaks out in giggles again* I'm glad. When I saw Neil Gaiman last year, he looked just so very tired that I almost wanted to tell him that I was sorry for dragging him there and keeping him so long for the signing...
:)) If you start with this first, you're probably gonna want to read the others, too. (Next one's Clash of Kings, then Storm of Swords, then Feast - the titles only sound dumb until you know the universe.)
It's really not. At least I didn't read the comment over your shoulder while you were still typing. And finally, I think we can both say with lots of conviction that we definitely had a life this past week. >:D
LIES, DIRTY LIES !!! You were like "choose your icon already so I can answer". And yeah, we had a life. We went out to buy food and anime posters (still no Illumi-only posters, by the way...)
But I did not actually read your comment while I was waiting for you to choose the bloody icon. >:F
I also was attacked by a cat. And unable to start a car. And drove around your tree (almost). And saw a movie! And had fruit juice. And cheese. Yes. *firm nod*
You weren't attacked, he was cuddling you. You tried to start the car to go and buy food. Fruit juice and cheese also come under this heading. And we had smoothies right before you went to see the movie, too.
It's all about the food, so yo uget the other Sanji icon.
He was smooching up to me (clearly disgusted by having to) because he wanted to go outside so much. He is very efficient at blocking the screen and the mouse, btw.
Dude, I *am* in France. Land of the champagne, quiche and lemon pie. Of course food's important! :))
(Forgive me Pez, author news make me high. I talk incoherently when high.)
Actually it's not the same cat. And this one's the shiest cat I've ever seen... I was quite suprised when he actually jumped on the desk and just started blocking my comp access, when he'd previously run away as soon as I was closer than two meters away from him.
