The Zoo over Ambuscade Street

I just spent several hours passed out on the couch, with the cat passed out on the back of the couch, and the dog passed out on the floor by the couch. It was great. Now...to read more, or to watch more Maison Ikkoku? Hard choice...

The fall of his lord he was fain to requite
in after days; and to Eadgils he proved
friend to the friendless, and forces sent
over the sea to the son of Ohtere,
weapons and warriors: well repaid he
those care-paths cold when the king he slew.
Thus safe through struggles the son of Ecgtheow
had passed a plenty, through perils dire,
with daring deeds, till this day was come
that doomed him now with the dragon to strive.

Wow, A Bed of Earth left me feeling a bit depressed. I'm not sure why, but...ug. I don't think I'll be reading Venus Preserved next, I need something not Tanith Lee. Which is a shame, because I seem to have a whole lot of Tanith Lee on my to-read shelf.

I don't know what I want to read, though. Something not requiring huge amounts of concentration, since I can't seem to stop feeling all light-headed and icky. Again. Erik stole my immune system to supplement his own. He does not deny this accusation, which is the only explanation that fits the facts. What's worse is that he passed on his secret technique to Thomas, who proceeded to steal Stacey's immune system as well. Bastards - why are husbands so cruel?

Maybe I'll go read Beowulf for the fifteen thousandth time this weekend. I don't know why I've developed a new obsession with it, maybe I need to go read some of the Icelandic Sagas.

Oh - and good luck to Kiggy with that application. You realize that if you get it I'm going to be forced to take shameless advantage of you to get all my boxes signed. ^_^
