the weather's being scary again!

[minkhollow]

There was fog this morning and it didn't go away until noon and the librarian just had to say it was getting thicker when she got to school this morning, didn't she, and we watched a video of rehearsal in drama class and it didn't help that I knew it was only me 'cause fog SERIOUSLY creeps me out these days (you might've guessed) and anyway that didn't help in the book...
And really, saying 'it's just a book' isn't enough help, considering it's a Discworld book and therefore you never know. Got through it by virtue of the tape having sound. I mean, really, today was just not movie weather.
Anyway. Wound up with the afternoon off, but I'm still at school (Mom has a meeting). People probably think I'm weird for spazzing over fog, but I'm justified in my spazzage. (And odds are they thought I was weird already. XD)

I get lots of fog. Lots and lots. Thankfully it doesn't freak me out quite as much as it seems to do to you.
Then there would be...trouble.

[minkhollow]

Indeed.
It's just... I dunno. Let's call it a testament to Terry Pratchett's writing skills, since all the spazzage is due to Moving Pictures.

Sounds like a plan.
More praise for Terry Pratchett! Hurrah! Dan's halfway through Soul Music and he doesn't seem to care about Pterry's teeth anymore.
Just his genius.
Ahahahahaha.

::busts up laughing:: Teeth? How'd that conclusion happen?
There's a trivia-thing going on discworld at the moment. I'm almost hoping the Soul Music question concerns all the band names Crash and company go through - I think I know them all, and possibly in order.

Er...the first book I lent him was Small Gods and there was a photo on the back. He proceeded to spend the next fifteen minutes saying things like "But his teeth are so...bad!"
To which I responded, "Shut uuurp."
And eventually, in frustration, "He's English."
Which, you know, worked, but still...shame on me. Shame by the bucket.
Do you? Soul Music has not been with me for many moons. (Since August.)
I like the phrase 'many moons.'

Some people. ::sigh::
My copy's been out since September. (And the point of the quiz is to get people to reread, so I'm just not checking answers on the ones I haven't read yet.) But... really. All the band names are one of the best bits in the book, and they're not on the DVD! (Among other things, but we've covered that...)

I am frightened of the DVD and ... Skadrian. But I want to see it anyway.
First two libraries have failed me. Perhaps Berkeley.

[minkhollow]

The DVD's not bad, as adaptations go. Just there's no Patrician and (nearly) no fun band names and the whole Adrian issue.
Music's bloody awesome, though.

...*cries*...oh liiibraries. Why are you so cruelly lacking?

[minkhollow]

I'm sure I couldn't tell you.
