Reading Is Fun
That's quite the understatement actually.
Last night I finished Polgara the Sorceress by David Eddings.
Wow.What a good book. Really kind of depressing in the first third or half, because the main character (Polgara) has an expanded lifetime, she is 3000 some odd years by the end of the book. So she sees all her loved ones die, except her dad and "uncles" .
Eventually she finds happiness though.
Eddings is just a genius. His Belgariad and Mallorean series had me drooling and screaming and totally oblivious to the real world. If you have never read a book by David Eddings, (and you like fantasy) than Pawn of Prophecy will delight you. Plus the other four books, and then the next five. They are all about 300 pages a piece, some longer. But all well well worth it.
Enough promotional stuff about Eddings.
I think I'm going to get carpal tunnel from working at baskin robbins. Scooping the "perfect scoop" just is not as easy as it looks. ( ^_^ hehehe)
um. Anything else? ..... *searching brain* Oh, Thank you Liam, Atlen, Rusty, Blackwings, and Nikorasu for almost religiously commenting on my posts. And for being great friends.
(Thanks to my Dad too [terquem] for that oddly applicable parable)
I know this is just the internet, but this community of people really cares about each other.
Now I'm off to visit some people's sites. Sorry I didn't get to it yesterday.

OH WAIT! The gOOGLE PICTURE!
OOOh. Pretty.
This is "kimberlite" by the way. Thanks again Atlen.
