Anna Begins

Lol no controversy?

Grunt by Mary Roach is out today!! It arrived late last night, as I had it on preorder. Plan on finishing up The Butterfly Garden today.

I managed 3 stories by Philip K Dick and 65 pages in The Butterfly Garden today Now it's midnight, I must try and sleep!

They've been more good than bad Still might read Minority Report again... undecided as of yet. I'm at it now. If I skip it, the omnibus might feel incomplete . I 're read my review of it from March (I think it was March) and wasn't too impressed...which is strange, it has all the makings of a good PKD.

Oh no! Recite Macbeth three times while turning in a circle

More reviews from Selected Stories of Philip K Dick I'm now at 42%, 202 pages of 473... here are 5 more reviews of his short stories, around 10- 35 pages. I feel like I should say that so far, no drug use is mentioned... just PKD weirdness and altered realities. Imposter "Perhaps at some other time, when there is no war, men might not act this way, hurting an individual to his death because they were afraid." Whew! Lots of tention in this one, as Spence Olham is suspected of being an alien robot spy. 5/5 The King of Elves Shadrach Jones is the owner of a nearly abandoned gas station. One night, closing up during a downpour, he is astounded to find a small group of beings with arrows and a leader of some kind on a pedestal. They claim to be elves, in need of shelter. When their leader dies that night, Shadrach is nominated as King of the Elves, who are in an ancient battle with evil trolls. 5/5 Adjustment Team I honestly don't know what this story is about, but it includes the interaction between humans and talking dogs. It had a sense of foreboding, but I couldn't get into it. 0/5 Foster, You're Dead Mike Foster desperately wants his cash strapped father to buy a bomb shelter for the upcoming war. Relenting, the bookshop owner gives in, but once funds for the payments run out- the bunker must be returned. 4/5 Upon the Dull Earth Silvia isn't a witch, she just conjures blood drinking angels. And then one day, she cuts her finger. Classic Dick. 5/5

I liked The Joy Luck Club...it's fun too, if you've ever played the game mahjong. I've only played the computer version, but with the actual tiles- wow! I'd love it (although I'm sure it's hard!).

Probably off topic, but somewhat related, Google Hologram of the lady kiss (the 12 second video).

She Googled him for me, and they are also known as Dutch Sheepdogs, so I guess they just speak Dutch Virginia, we have two of those! Face stripe and all. I just couldn't tell which color yours is? Rio is short, blue and a good 70 pounds. Buddy is black and HUGE, about 95 pounds! We call him a horse Edit- they both have "socks"

Nice! Gaia, I'm in, if that counts...

What did you think? I'll be interested to hear how you like it! I'm passing the day with the Phillip K Dick short story omnibus.

I think he found a good home

At least you had a good time I'm in love with Ubbe!

That first one makes me think of Luka puppy . He's adorable Welcome to BCF Ubbe!

June and Day from Marie Lu's Legend!!

I loved when she "dated" Walt And the one where he wears those glasses to prevent SAD lol

Totally! The first line thread gets me too I am in a police interrogation room, with a huge butterfly tattooed on my back, recently found in a place called the garden. The Butterfly Garden by Dot Hutchinson

Lol but they're cute

Rage Against the Machine.

Lol I still saved $5

I guess, as a parent, I would just try to be more "in tune" with my child, ya know? Especially when warning signs present themselves.

That's good, she could use it!

I was just thinking that! And I still have...45 minutes left of Saturday

Of course, I can't speak for everyone in the US, but there is no sympathy...

Thanks- I think I managed 10 pages today
