My pretty shinies came in yesterday. :D This particular batch was Where's Neil When You Need Him? (a CD inspired by the assorted work of Neil Gaiman), FaustEric (the one Discworld book I don't have... well, other than Wintersmith, obviously :p) and Finding Serenity: Anti-Heroes, Lost Shepherds and Space Hookers in Joss Whedon's Firefly (a geek book. :p) The CD is VERY cool music. :D And the geek book is so SHINY and so very very GEEKY and it makes me oh so VERY happy. :p

Speaking of geeky and making me happy... I finished reading the first volume of Runaways yesterday. It's a funky series and I think I definitely need to buy more. ([livejournal.com profile] chlorrel, [livejournal.com profile] djcati, [livejournal.com profile] pirate_lass? This is YOUR fault, I hope you realize. :p)

I had my audition for The Wizard of Oz last night, which I think went decently. I was running late, so I had to run to campus, but in true G&G fashion, things were running behind schedule. :p

Last night, Vicki and I went over to someone's house to watch the Grey's Anatomy premiere. Yes, the premiere. CTV is silly and showed the SECOND episode last week, so we got the premiere last night. Which made a few things make a lot more sense. :p Lily and Sean (the people we watched it with) are, like, my new favorite people, incidently. THey're just so cool. Sean is McGeek, because the other girl we were watching with decided she was Izzy. Vicki called NOT being Meredith, and then Sean said that we could call him McDreamy, but he doubted we would. This led to the designation of McGeek. :p They're also Firefly fans and generally awesome and YAY.

And now I'm ending this post because Vicki insists I come see something. :p

Hey, Yubsie, tell me how Finding Serenity is when you're done, will you? I've been looking at it on Amazon for a while, but I've skimmed a few books with similar premises for ST and SW before and always been disappointed. I didn't want to buy this one and just wind up throwing it against a wall. :p

I need to get Runaways....I got the first issue a few years ago, and then realized I was overbudget, so I canned it [it was part of a large push of books Marvel called Tsunami, and one of the few successes from that line :)]

I'll probably get around to buying the digests someday, though I'm currently drowning in a sea of comics, so it'll have to wait. Since you've reminded me I should be reading Runaways....

Have you read Basara?
You should really try that. It's about a girl whose twin brother is the prophesized Boy of Destiny, who will save her people in a post-apocalyptic future version of Japan. Except he dies. And then she has to pose as the Boy of Destiny in his place! And then she falls in love with her worst enemy without knowing it...... much doom! I just ordered Book 6 :)

Because I do! Which I why I have to post a link to this
http://shaenon.livejournal.com/12938.html

And to aid this, a handy review :) [Shaenon's OverLooked Manga Festival is a fun read, that gets you to check out a lot of stuff. Mind you, she's a Viz Editor, so there's a bit of bias due to her being surrounded by said material ^_~]
