I realized that over the past few months, I've been lucky if I read a comicbook. I haven't been writing, I haven't been reading, and what I have read or written was strictly dialogue. Missing a whole half.

So. I thought 'gee, I shall read one book a week to make up for this horrible lapse'

this thought was followed with: 'bitch, please. you can't keep up a pattern for longer than five minutes, let alone a period of several weeks'

so I shrugged and read The Wizard in the Tree by Lloyd Alexander to cheer myself up.

Let's see if I manage something next week.

ps: are childrens books allowed to use 'that little slut' as an insult? Cause, whoa. This question brought to you by John's reading of the book mentioned above.

Turns out it can mean servant girl(which Mallory was). Yay!

er, in the book I read. The character's name was Mallory. And they called her a slut a lot and she helped out a wizard and this old guy tried to kill her and one of the few really good guys was a LAWYER.
