wayfairer:
FOR THE MONTH OF DECEMBER:
Current DVD to Watch: I don't have one yet. I'd go buy Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, but I put it on my wishlist, and, well. Can't buy ANYTHING from my wishlist.
Current Movie to Watch: I was going to say Alexander, but the reviews coming in are so bad I don't know if I'll see it. Maybe Finding Neverland?
Current Actor to Watch: Probably Johnny Depp, although Ewan is always first. *g*
Current Music to Hear: Tossup between Elton and Bernie's Captain Fantastic and the Brown Dirt Cowboy and the Flash Girls' Play Each Morning Wild Queen.
Current Book to Read: Perdido Street Station by China Mieville.
Current pastime to commit to: Writing. Must. Make. Time.
Current song to sing: Whatever I feel like at the time. My singing is mercurial.
Current food: Nime Chow. I can't stop!
Current drink: Coffee.
Oh, and:
You are American Gods! You are mysterious,
intelligent, and creative. To the rest of the
world you may seem a little standoffish, but
really youre just a quiet person. Youre sort of
bookish and are intrigued by mythology and
fairy tales. You might be Wiccan or Pagan,
either that or youre unreligious. You have a
sarcastic sense of humor and are the kind of
person people like to talk to because youre
such a good listener.

I always thought I was Neverwhere. But it's accurate except the part about being quiet. Am not quiet. Mneh.

Date: 2004-12-04 07:32 am (UTC)You are Stardust! You are whimsical, creative, and
spirited. You might be seen as naive and
foolhardy, which is a little true, but it can
also be called bravery. Youre idealistic and
people might think youre a little off because
you talk about some strange things. You
probably love nature, whether its you love
animals, nature walks or just admiring it from
afar. Youre a creative person and like to write
short stories or poems and draw and paint. You
have a sly, self-depreciating sense of humor
and are a blast to be with because of your
adventurous personality.

What does this mean?
By the way, it's only and solely because of that link you linked on my LJ that I went out and bought Enigma two days ago. You don't even realise what a landmark that is for me. Me, buying a comic book. adsjf;lkjfs;klf.

Date: 2004-12-04 09:10 am (UTC)Ooh, this sounds good!
I own exactly two
comic booksgraphic novels--Preludes and Nocturnes and A Doll's House (Sandman vols. 1 and 2). I'd never read any other comics either. I figured the little pictures clogged up the (more important) words. But, I figured if Neil wrote it, it's worth a look, and surprise! I found that comics aren't just Archie and Batman. Sandman, at least, is a lovely new mythology. It's no wonder there are people going to conventions dressed up as Death. You should read these. *nods emphatically*And, alas, I have never read Stardust. I've been looking for the illustrated version and can't find it for the life of me, so I gave up and put the un-illustrated version on my wishlist, and of course, I can't buy anything on said list until after Christmas.
I really do wish I hadn't put Coraline on the list, because wah, I want to read it Now!
I mean, gee:
"'The reason you cannot see the mouse circus,' said the man upstairs, 'is that the mice are not yet ready and rehearsed. And they refuse to play the songs I have written for them. All the songs I have written for the mice to play go oompah oompah. But the white mice will only play toodle oodle, like that. I am thinking of trying them on different types of cheese.'"
Why yes, I can be ten when I want. It's loads of fun *g* Is it Christmas yet?

Date: 2004-12-05 07:01 am (UTC)You are Neverwhere! You are dark, intriguing, and
lenient. You might make people feel
uncomfortable, either because you are
intimidating or you dress differently possibly
both. In reality you are a nice person, but
people tend to make snap judgments about you
and think they can push you around. You
probably are idealistic and dream of a utopian
society. The friends that you have are the kind
that last forever and you are fun and
easy-going when people bother to get to know
you.

Date: 2004-12-06 05:06 am (UTC)J.R.R. Tolkien: Lord of the Rings. You are
entertaining and imaginative, creating whole
new worlds around yourself. Well loved, you
have a whole league of imitators, none of which
is quite as profound as you are. Stories and
songs give a spark of joy in the middle of your
eternal battle with the forces of evil.

*giddy* Oh isn't that just grand??? I'll take that as a sign that I'm on the right road with my writing (which I haven't done in a week *curses damnable necessities of daily life*)
