Y'all having a good time?
I am ;) A very lazy time, filled with crap tv and lots of food. Hurrah! Haven't even come close to killing any family members, which is always a bonus.

Tho since I have Aoife (baby niece) tonight so Karen can get some sleep, this may change tomorrow. Alas, yet another baby seems to have inherited my night-owlness somehow. It's gone well so far tho. Just an hour of relentless screaming before she fell asleep ;p Due to wake up again fairly soon, so mostly I'm just killing time now.

So, um, anyone get any good books for Christmas?
I got 2 hefty looking sci-fi ones by Peter Hamilton. Never heard of him, anyone read anything by him before?

Also lovely Ecclestone!Who dvds in v. funky (or, as my family pointed out, nerdy) tardis box.

Tomorrow thesme_01 comes to visit, so I may pass the sleepless hours later thinking up salacious gossip to tell her about you all. Of course in some cases this won't take very much thinking ;)

hoi. pure as driven here!

i got a book of 20th century hungarian poetry, but i'm not sure people other than me would call that good. brother #2 got me (amongst other things) a withdrawn library book for children called 'the boy with the bronze axe' set in skara brae*. it's very poor, but fairly amusing as a result.

*it says: "A thrilling adventure story centred round life in a Stone Age village. The strange boy who arrives suddenly in a boat brings with him an axe made from a substance called bronze."
