once I get you up there where the air is rarified, we'll just slide, starry-eyed

Geh. It's snowing. I have to leave for work early, bleh.


But first, a question: Has anyone read any Neal Stephenson, and if so, did you like it and why? He's listed as a fantasy/steampunk sort of writer, but when I look at the books in stores, it doesn't seem that way to me. I know I'm missing something, and he's got a great reputation. Also, people who read what I read seem to like him. I'd like to give his work a try, but as I usually buy my books I want to make sure I'm actually going to read it.


Also. I'm becoming minorly obsessed with Frank Sinatra. Not that this is a bad thing. The man invented syncopation, I'm convinced.

Chickie baby, you know how I feel about The Chairman. He is *the* koo-kookiest. I have a CD of one of the shows at the Sands with Sinatra, Dean, Sammy, Joey Bishop, & occasionally Peter Lawford. It's crazy, baby, cr-aa-zy.
