So, I finished Death Note (or is it Deathnote?) and I'm most of the way through Matter on the train. so I need a new shelf-book which can be promoted to bag-book when I do finish (and therefore clear the way for a new shelf-book). I just went out and brought a load of new books (payday is fun) and now have a stack I am going to list and promise to read before moving on. That stack is:

• Jumper - Steven Gould

The Speed Dating has been cancelled. Dunno why, but there's a little "Cancelled" label over the event poster. No penniless speed-dating for Alex. No Valentine's Day fun for Alex. Bah!

Good news is I won't be penniless from Friday. W00t! Paydays!! This means I can go into Fanboy3 and pick up Rites of Spring and then wander over to my workplace for a Greater Manchester LGBT Network thing that's being set up primarily between SUs in Manchester I think.

Well, already I'm behind on my planned "keep the blog up to date" mission. Damnit.

Well, if you look to the right, you should see I have been reading lots of Dune. I'm currently reading Chapter House Dune on the train to and from work. That's the last of Frank Herbert's Dune books and the rest are slaughtered by his son, Brian Herbert, and Kevin J Anderson who should be served an Anti-Literature Behaviour Order.
