Plinkety plinkety plink

No rabbits today unfortunately. I did receive a free book in the mail when I got home yesterday though. That was pretty cool. If you want a free book too, you should go to the bookcrossing website and register. Then you get "Wild Animus" when you fill in some details.

I am introducing bookcrossing to the libraries of Wellington. You join up, register your books and then release them into the wild for someone else to find. Then they tell the website they've done it and you get to watch your book travel around. It's awesome fun to leave a book out in the wild and then get an email saying someone's collected it. Also, it's a great way od clearing shelf space!

I finished Why Girls are Weird last night. I really liked it, except that the message seemed to be 'don't have an online journal'. Which is weird, given that the author has an online journal. True, she did take it down for a while, but then she started it back up again. Then again, I doubt talula will ever get so popular as to become a problem like in the book. I have in fact had no scary stalker men, so it's all good. No, that was not an invitation by the way.

I am now reading Dude, Where's My Country so there may well be more Michael Moore rants in the future.
Quick revelation from the first chapter: The Bush family and the Bin Ladens are old family friends and business partners.

Watched Amon Saga the other day. It's exactly like a crappy D&D movie but animated by the Japanese. All the monsters were two animals in one eg. owl-cat, cat-wolf. Scary stuff. Very poorly written too, not interesting at all and the lovely princess was called Leechia. Her name was the feminine version of Leech. How appealing.
