I'm da man. I beat last month on the reading and half of them are new, half are rereads. July probably won't beat June, even though there's an extra day, because I'll be busy. And because I have yet to place my Amazon order for more books.
Birthday Wish List:
New computer
Books
English manga - Almost anything is free game here.
Anime DVDs - Knight Hunters, Sailor Moon SS, Utena, Fushigi Yuugi TV, Rayearth
That's for anyone who still hasn't gotten me anything. :)
Let's see.. the whole pledge thing is stupid and our world will not be safe until we get Bush out.
And.. oh yea..
Minority Report: Definitely a Spielberg movie based on a Phillip K. Dick story. Which basically boils down to.. Spielberg made the whole thing palatable. And I'll slip in an 'I told you so' about there being squeamishy bits.
Lilo and Stitch: Very good for a Disney cartoon. Best one since Mulan, but not better than Mulan. The girls had /real legs/ - bodies not shaped like Barbie dolls. There were no annoying animal sidekicks, there were no fireworks, there was no music that didn't fit. And Lilo kicked some major butt.
Oh, and Pleakley and that other alien were /so/ gay. You know they were shacking up by the end of the movie.

I don't want to do it with my own name. So nyea. More interesting not to. So..
Remus is small, it can easily be transported in a compact car, is air shippable as baggage, and may be launched and recovered from a small vessel.
Remus is dead reckoning.
Remus is neutrally buoyant in water.
Remus is a legend.
Remus is a sound card emulator.
Remus is not a band but a concept.
Remus is certainly an honorable man.
Remus is a system prototype for online user-independent handwriting recognition.
Lockhart is not afraid of commitment.
Lockhart is also a member of Outstanding Young Men in America.
Lockhart is one of the oldest Protestant churches in continuous use in Texas.
Lockhart is the barbecue capital of Texas.
Lockhart is not just a pretty face in the books!

Finished Smoke and Mirrors. And yes, the (R) means Reread. Something I don't often do, despite the number of rereads listed there at the moment. :) Ender's Game being the exception to that, since I think it's the book I've reread the most. Even counting Prisoner of Azkaban. The different there being that I first read Ender's Game like 15 years ago and I first read Prisoner about 2-3 years ago.
"Murder Mysteries" is the best of the lot and I'm not even sure I can say anything about it without sorta.. ruining the magic of it for myself.
"Babycakes" I also thought was good.
Anyway.. which book of his should I get next? Or should I just give in and get both? ('Both' meaning not any Sandman one.)
I need to finish another book I just bought.. well, read enough of it to know if I want more of the series. Then I can put together an Amazon order.

Finally added another book to my book list. Not good. It's the 19th now and I still have 3 more books to read just to /tie/ last month.
The Rate My Kitten site is horribly cute and had me looking at it for way too long. If anyone knows any other Rate My sites that aren't totally gross or stupid, let me know.
On to start a new book.

What do you think about getting a computer from here? I put together a decent system and it came to 545$. That was with DVDRom and CD-R, so all I'd need is the video capture card.
Or maybe here?

Okay, here's some pics. Here's me. And here's George. And here's Quidditch George. And here's Sirius. I tried to do Ginny and an OC of mine, but it didn't work terribly well and I got bored. :)

Scary query time! Seems several people are looking here for livejournal quizzes. This isn't a livejournal! But hey, if people are taking my questionnaire thingees.. cool!
Seems a lot of people are also looking here for HP DVD easter eggs. Well, sorry, I don't know of any. Check the easter egg site. I forget where it is, or I'd link.
And a nicely scary one to see, especially since I just put in a SM CD... 'chibimoon ecchi'. Thanks a /lot/, google.
And /why/ are people looking for that Hanes billboard? Never mind, I don't want to know.
And for those of you looking for Angelic Layer bishounen, OSC's newest book, and above all Harry Potter stuff.. yay! You go, girl.
