igenlode: The pirate sloop 'Horizon' from "Treasures of the Indies" (Default)
It's that time of year again -- the time when the winter jackets come out of the suitcase (and the linen ones and the short-sleeves go back in), the indoors temperature starts down towards fifty degrees and we start to play the "how long can we do without central heating" game. So far I've managed all day with only a jerkin over a lambswool jumper, but my arms and toes were definitely starting to feel cold... at the moment I'm cheating, sitting in a room where somebody else surrendered and ran a heater earlier on!

But I think I'll need bedsocks again tonight; it's always a bad sign when you wake up in the morning and your toes are still chilly.



Finally finished off Sookie Stackhouse: I've read "Dead Until Dark", "Living Dead in Dallas" and "Club Dead", plus the 'teaser chapters' for "Dead to the World", and I can say with all honesty that my main feeling is one of relief at having made it to the end -- I have no particular desire to find out the rest of what happens in "Dead to the World" (especially if it starts with Vampire Eric).

I don't know what is wrong with these books, but they make about as much impression on me as "Twilight"; in fact, in all honesty I think probably less. Very lightweight. I still think Vampire Elvis is the best bit -- judging by his recurring appearances, I'd guess I wasn't the only one!
