  1. hey, Laz!
    So good to hear from you! I will keep your family in my prayers.

    So, it sounds like you celebrate on Epiphany? Yes, the Wise Men need to come to bring the presents! Have a good holiday season, and perhaps things will be better with your friends after the break.
    :shug:

  2. Hubby and I have been watching the Mushi-Shi series on instant watch through Netflix. Mushi are a life form that not everyone can see, and Mushi-Shi is a "Mushi master" who travels around helping people out with the sometimes troublesome Mushi. From Wikipedia;

    Mushishi (蟲師?) is a manga series written and illustrated by Yuki Urushibara, published in Kodansha's Afternoon magazine from 1999 to August 2008.

    The manga was adapted into an anime television series in 2005. The Artland production was directed by Hiroshi Nagahama. A live-action feature film adaptation, directed by Katsuhiro Otomo, premiered on March 24, 2007.

    The Mushishi manga won an Excellence Prize at the 2003 Japan Media Arts Festival and the 2006 Kodansha Manga Award.

    She's my favourite writer SmileThe Birthday of the World and The Wind's Twelve Quarters are two collections of short stories that I totally recommend congratulations

    I haven't read The Birthday of the World; but yeah, she is so awesome!

    and Ursula, I always wondered how you chose your name!

  4. The only item I have bought with FBC is my nursery. All things considered, it was a great investment...but it took a month before I actually got it!

    I have absolutely no problem with accepting SB requests! And all my give-aways, are free. I don't do trades. I just enjoy being a virtual cat lady!

  5. I actually met Ursula Le Guin!!

    Her books are the whole reason I started enjoying reading Science Fiction...and there she was at a book signing! I knew she lived in the Portland, Oregon area but hadn't "bumped" into her. She is a lovely lady, who seems very kind and "laid back". I wish I hadn't been so "gaga-stupid" while I was talking to her!

    Some of her books:
    The Wizard of Earthsea Triology
    The Dispossessed
    Left Hand of Darkness
    The Word for World is Forest (If you love Avatar, read this! She wrote this first!)
    The Lathe of Heaven

  6. We've had a little snow falling just before Thanksgiving, but it was all washed away by the rain (which is normal for us). Our winter is starting off colder than usual. Here in Portland with the first snow, everybody goes stupid and the schools will close even if it is barely one inch!

  7. Now, why would anybody want a "Holiday Bathroom"? And that "modern" shelf; I got news for you...I have a shelf at home just like it and it is from 1948!

    So, the trees have all gone to mystery boxes? *sigh*
    but I'm glad for the Menorah!
