I changed it just before reading your 'spread sheets' joke actually. I wondered if you had seen it before writing your comment haha.

Virginie | 6109 comments I joined GR in 2016. I heard a little about the bad rep' the website had in 2015 but didn't know things went that far :O

I've been trying to out her for months... I'm clueless to most folklore I don't hear about in Urban Fantasy... Black Annis came to my attention through the Luideag in the October Daye series...

That's how you know about the folklore... Damn... I told Siobhan yesterday that I think you have some crazy internet super powers and could find everything online :D Not sure if that would make you a Super or a Powered...

Haha and the movie cover revealed Ahdams true nature as well!

Ahdam (snowlocke) | 2429 comments I always thought I could pull of a Norman Bates if I wanted to but minus the voices like my imaginary friend Rupert would say

Fun fact about psycho obviously the rating board were heavily critical of the shower scene and insisted some changes but one of the more ridiculous shots they didn’t want in the film was of the toilet as the money is being flushed down because that would have been too much for the audience

I do do a lot of googling, but I need to know what to google before I can go about finding it... Black Annie/Annis has been in the back of my brain for a couple years now... most of the images I link come from spending too much time on Imgur (or work with them DVD covers)...

I thought it was mighty clever when I realized "Bean Sidhe" is pronounced Banshee

That's some pretty obscure folklore for an urban fantasy series - impressive!

I still believe in the crazy internet super powers! XD

October Daye is a series about Fae/Faerie, with a Shakespearean tilt... all the titles are taken from Shakespeare, and Oberon, Titania, and Maeve are the (lost) Kings and Queens of Faerie, like in A Midsummer Night's Dream

Virginie | 6109 comments Decided to change of I track my previous reads. Basically, I'm going from neatly recording all my BR with pretty stars for the rating to... just dumping 'em in the thread at the end of each month.

Time to embrace my laziness :p

Virginie | 6109 comments Stealing Soo's idea, and posting whatever's on my mind on my tracker, starting now :p

It's been raining non-stop for a week here, but I feel it's been forever :'(

Soo (silverlyn) | 6898 comments You don't like the rain? I love rain.

Karishma (karishmanewar) | 1619 comments A post on Virginie's tracker after so long.

Rain is good when you are at home, but if you have to go to work in the rain, it sucks!

If the rain looked like that picture, it wouldn't be so bad :)

I tend to like rain, because it means cooler temperatures...

This one is a gif. Cute. =D


Read all the books! Or not. I like rain for lots of things. Though I don't dance and play in the rain like a kid anymore. I should do that more in the spring. =D


Great for "Which one do I read next?"


message 373: by Karishma (new)

Karishma (karishmanewar) | 1619 comments Reading in the cool cool weather from rain is amazing ❤️


message 374: by Virginie (new)

Virginie | 6109 comments I like when it's pouring; raining so heavily you think the world is ending. I hate drizzle though. It makes me all fidgety and impatient for some reason.


message 375: by Virginie (new)

Virginie | 6109 comments I'm actually dressed exactly like the girl in the first picture, down to the pink socks. My cup however, doesn't have a heart on it. Nope. Instead, it says "Shit happens..." xD


message 376: by Elinor (new)

Elinor | 1548 comments I like to read when it's raining so much that when it's not I often put a "rain pouring on a window" white noise video.

Yes, I love ambience videos, too! I love listening to crackling fire sounds while reading. Rain sounds are great, too :)


message 380: by Elinor (new)

Elinor | 1548 comments Crackling fire is great indeed, when you can't have a real one because you don't have a chimney or because the weather is too nice !


message 381: by Karishma (new)

Karishma (karishmanewar) | 1619 comments I have never tried listening to crackling fire before only rain. Will try it out today!

Me too!!!... Oh wait, they're black... my bad :)


message 383: by Virginie (new)

Virginie | 6109 comments Oh! I'd say randomly posting stuff here is a success! I got to know the color of Iain's socks! Hahaha!

I had an app some years ago with various soothing sounds: rain, crackling fire, wind, bird chippings, etc. I stopped using it with time... Time to dig it up! :D

It's ok Iain, you don't need to be ashamed, wearing pink socks is fine!

that's where you insert your "feet"

Diana Stormblessed (dashichka) | 5391 comments Umm... those aren't socks. I mean, they belong in the bedroom, so close, but no.

Elinor | 1548 comments Diana are you talking about what I think you're talking about ? I hope you're not talking about what I think you're talking about.

Elinor | 1548 comments By the way on the socks update, I'm weiring blue ones ! with dots.

Shhhh, don't say that. Imagining those monstrosities on feet is horrifying enough, let alone other body parts...

So. They're socks. I choose to believe they're socks. 😰


message 396: by Elinor (new)

Elinor | 1548 comments Plus there are two of them. They have to be socks or this went to an all new level of weird.

Maybe there are two, so that you always have one available while the other one is being washed?
