mood: optimistic
So I'm back from my lovely jaunt at Pt. Leo
did the Christmas thing, did the New Years thing and now

its

A brand new year..
how terribly wonderful.

I hope you all enjoy it.
And while you're here, jot down any important dates for my calendar?
Birthdays, christenings, national speak like a pirate day (along with all those other semi-official holidays I always miss) and more importantly
when we are going to catch up!

Actually, it might be better to gimme a call for the latter
but both are good.

More about everything later, maybe.

Okay, so I can't be bothered grabbing some photos of Pt. Leo. But. It’s that time of year and here's the recommendations (everyone knows the beach is the second, maybe third, best place to read. Right after cuddled up in bed with someone who’s as lame as you and home alone in the backyard with the soft sunlight getting rid of the tan lines you got at the beach):

To Kill a Mocking Bird - Harper Lee
The Crucible - Aurther Miller
The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime - Mark Haddon
The Book Theif - Markus Zusak
The Virgin Suicides - Jeffery Eugenides
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland - Lewis Carroll
The End of the Affair - Graham Greene
Of Mice and men - John Steinbeck
The Outsider - Camus
The Handmaiden's Tale - Margaret Atwood
The Plague - Camus
Shotgun (of course!)
Kissing the Curve - alicia somtimes (poetry)
The Eyre Affair - Jaspher Fforde
The Monkey's Mask - Dorothy Porter (poetry)
The NeverEnding Story - Michael Ende
Nineteen Eighty-Four - Orwell (re-read. My copy this time)
The Godfather - Mario Puzo
Automated Alice - Jeff Noon
Going Down Swinging no. 18
Voiceworks in general, and especially S.O.S and ZERO.

(and even though I technically read these this year)
Madame Bovary - Gustave Flaubert
The Princess Bride - William Goldman! (which is of course a re-read. But seriously. It’s fantastic. I love it to pieces).

The ones in bold are books you MUST read before you die.
By simply perusing this entry you have signed a contract in blood that DEMANDS you read them before your last breath. Or else.
