Dustin's favorite quotes
"And I dream of Michelangelo when I'm lying in my bed
I see God upon the ceiling
I see angels overhead
And he seems so close
As he reaches out his hand
We are never quite as close
As we are led to understand"
— Adam Duritz of Counting Crows

Baaaaaa! Heheh, thanks for the welcome Duff.
I will need to rebound on reading soon. I have been so active with writing together with friends on the internet that I have lost track of my original hunger for the palatable paperback and the irresistible nectar of hard-cover novels.
Be certain that I will also write. I have gathered enough experience from role-play that I have rigorously developed my writing skills, but apparently I should have had more faith in my abilities beforehand. Time is lost, but I have no reason to lament for I have gained determination if nothing else.
The local library will be seeing me more often
You, my friend, are just as hilarious. It's quite entertaining when you hang out. Now, as far as you disguising yourself for the Girl's Night Out book discussion -- I could possibly lend you my BIG purse (Mary Kate & Ashley perfume included). In Nov. we're reading the Glass Castle -- you're so welcome to come! Thanks for hanging out last night. :)
Trevor,
You mentioned "The Wide Window".
I'm loving Lemony Snicket's writing style in his "A Series of Unfortunate Events" series. So many puns. So many allusions to the rich literary past. So demonstrative of Snicket's capability in making vocabulary-building and word-learning a fun thing. The on-the-fly (literally, right in the characters' speech) teaching of vocabulary and idioms. The books are so humorously written.
I wish I had written them. But then again I'm not that clever.
Woo-hoo!!! Dustin is my first friend!!! =)
It's cool to see all these really serious books on your list and then see The Wide Window as your "currently reading"!
Thanks, bro!
