Robert Jordan is rather dull in places but its still a good story. I suppose it appeals to a more masculine audience because the story centers around three main male characters. Jordan puts in some supposedly powerful female characters but they all end up being cliche'd stereotypes. (I wrote on Jordan as part of my final dissertation at university)

I suppose I can see where you can like faith of the fallen best but I still love stone of tears. But you have to admit he's something of a nutter once he starts talking about 'issues' - communism especially. As soon as the idea even crosses his mind he goes "NO! Everything is wrong!" and goes into a frenzy.

On a more personal note I feel like shit. My brother had some unknown illness during the week and now it looks like its doing the rounds. Last night was the worst night's sleep I have ever had

Wah.. I once coughed so much I threw up.

Oh yeah everybody....

It's Chinese New Year on Wednesday!

I'm a pig. That's not a comment on my personality or my tidiness or my personal hygiene, its the chinese zodiac animal that applies to the year i was born.

But of course you knew that.

Still feel pretty ill, but i'm a million times better than I was on saturday. Over the weekend I've had about 9 hours of sleep in total.

Anyway, I've got to go, there's a pile of snot rags in the corner of my room that needs removing.

Tiger!

Yeah, and I was lucky (?) enough to be a monkey.........!

Other than that I hope you have a good day Plas and feel better soon

Man, I develop literally mountains of 'snot rags' when I have a cold. Maybe I long-distance transmitted my afflictions to you.

I live on about 5/6 hours sleep a day. AND I have more energy than other people (minus the coffee too). I live on adrenaline. I coughed so hard in the night recently that my abdominal and back muscles ached.

You only had to ask Zuke.......... I'm sure someone will oblige

Oh, but I don't want just someone, Witchie, I want you! (Marsi's cute, but keeps wandering off topic....)

Even if I don't get your jokes huh? Nice to be wanted.......

If everyone got all my jokes all the time, it would be a sure sign I wasn't trying hard enough!

And the last thing I want you to think about me is "trying, but not hard enough....."

 

[Marsipanne]

LOL! I'm too easily distracted.. sigh. Wish I wasn't. I'm usually yabbering about something nobody can get apart from me and a few other people in the world.

Mmmmm. Surely there must be someone in real life that interests you as much as manga boys.

If we were all the same life would be soooooooooo boring Marsi..... We enjoy your posts !

 

[Marsipanne]

Oh yeah, there is. He's married.
I can be rather fickle, I must admit, but I do love the strange world of manga. I am a writer myself after all, and I have to say, being a writer is the best thing in the world. Control freak to your heart's desire.

And Witchie, yup, I am certainly 'different'. Some would say in a good, interesting way. Some would just say 'you're so weird' to me. I'm happy to be rather odd though. At least if anything I can shock people when they think they know me.

 

[WantonWitch]

lol, I've been shocking them for years..........great fun

Yeah, that joy buzzer of yours has electrified many a man.
