(no subject)

Dash it *all*, I have spent much of this evening consumed by a mad desire to put Lord Peter Wimsey and young Brucie Wayne in a locked room together. (The chronology even fits, if you use Earth-2 Brucie, who's the best of the lot anyway!) They could spend the time talking about rare-book collecting, their mutual hobby!

It's just too bad that I have a near-zero chance of ever knowing either canon well enough to write in it, much less getting the in-period speech patterns right.

Well, no. Not unless the teacher cancels my class, and she's not going to cancel the class.

I could get to Dun Loring about half an hour earlier, but that would add at least that much driving time.

But hey! We can go to the Frederick one today and the Hagerstown one Sunday night! Or something! I just won't be able to afford anything at the Frederick one, since they don't take trade-ins after 4:00. :P

But if we do the Frederick one first we might accidentally buy something for the expensive price!

Or we could go to the Hagerstown one and you could spend pretty much all night driving! I wouldn't mind!

I already told mom we'd be getting home after 10 at the very, very earliest, so. Up to you. They only have one Bobbsey Twins book in the catalog anyway.

Also note: it's thanksgiving eve, and it's wet, so the traffic's probably going to *suck*. We might be better off not heading out till pretty late. (Or we might be better off minimizing driving.)

I say we go to Hagerstown. I found an alt rt back to Leesburg in case the traffic sucks horribly. I'll drive to Hagerstown and Severn, you can drive to Leesburg?

P.S. LOOK IT'S SALLY (http://www.shortpacked.com/d/20061122.html)

And don't forget to bring back your library books! On Sunday I guess.

I suppose that would be acceptable, if you stay awake to make sure I go the right way.

There *must* be music available other than Jingle Cats, however, if I'm driving.

PS. I DON'T GET IT. ANYWAY THAT'S NOT SAL THAT'S ROBIN. ARE YOU TRYING TO INVALIDATE MY LIFESTYLE CHOICES AGAIN?

Ok! I have Jingle Cats, a tape of silly Christmas songs, and I made a tape the other day of Sinatra/Crosby on one side and Random Christmas on the other. And 97.1 is playing Christmas now! Plus there's lots of non-Christmas.

BECAUSE SEE YOU REPLACE "UPDATE TRANSFORMERS WIKI" WITH "START AND NEVER FINISH ALL SORTS OF FANFIC," AND YEAH.

Oh well. It amused me for 30 seconds.

Maybe you will prefer THE RETURN OF THE CEPHALOPODS (http://www.qwantz.com/index.pl?comic=888)

I do not know what is up with webcomics and sex today.

OKay, she did cancel it. Can you be at PoR by 3?

(answer hurray fast! Or perhaps I should use the telephone-y thing.)
