Ok, not really it is because of you that I have such great film experiences as Monty Python and the Holy Grail and, the soon released to DVD, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. So I can't curse you completely, but you have ruined the minds of a great number of people and lulled them to their own damnation: slothing about and heart-attacks brought on by clogged arteries through lack of exercise. Which brings me to reading . . . so much fun.
I've forgotten how much I enjoy reading.
Fortunately the joy was rediscovered this summer beginning with a couple of Francine River's books. Yes these are Christian Romance novels. laugh. but she is actually pretty good and I enjoy her stories. Then came the Hitchhiker's Guide; So far I can say they are the most hysterical books ever, though the last two are suspect. Followed by C S Lewis reading Perelandra and The Chronicles of Narnia; good, fun books. I finally read The Return of the King after reading parts one and two of the Lord of the Rings in High School. After which I read The Hobbit; its good but it is hard to piece in with the others . . . of course I'm also thinking from a movie perspective which perverts the books with imagery.
Before me is Pride and Prejudice, which I was supposed to read in High School English, but didn't. I would imagine any test information came from the A&E mini series starring Colin Firth (and all the ladies go AH! to which I have but one thing to say: ANGELA LANDSBURY IS HOT LIKE A TAMALE). But alas the classics section at Hastings has $1 books and it was there that I bought: Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, The Picture of Dorian Grey, A Midsummer's Night Dream, and The Hound of Baskerville. Pride and Prejudice is being put aside for now.
Because I want to read about the chain smoking caterpillar.
Je t'aime,
