Meme Theme

I received a meme from Cop Car a couple of days ago, and I am just now getting around to completing it.

1. You are stuck inside Fahrenheit 451. Which book do you want to be? First, since I haven't read that particular book, I had to do some research on what it was about. No, I didn't buy crib notes, just went to Amazon and read the description there. Anyway, sad to say, it would have to be a short childrens book, because of my lousy, and fading, memory. Maybe something like Dr. Seuss' Green Eggs and Ham.
2. Have you ever had a crush on a fictional character? Although I really get into the characters in most books (heck, I get teary eyed if one of them dies), I can't say I have ever had a crush on one of them. I'm just not a romantic!
3. The last book you bought was . . .? Starman, book 3 of the Wayfarer Redemption series, by Sarah Douglass.
4. The last book you read was? Enchanter, book 2 of the Wayfarer Redemption series, by Sarah Douglass.
5. What are you currently reading? Starman, book 3 of the Wayfarer Redemption series, by Sarah Douglass. (there is a method to my madness - or a madness to my method, I'm not sure which).
6. Five books you would take to a deserted island? Of course, Stephen King's The Stand (unabridged version), The Coldfire Trilogy books by CS Freidman (I would have to get them back from my BIL first), and Field Guide to Edible Plants (so I won't starve).
7. Who are you passing this on to and why? Any of my faithful readers that wish to participate.

Ummmm, I hope "I" am not the BIL you loaned those books to. If so, beats me where they are. And, as you know, that is NOT like me.
Hope you get them back soon.

YEA!!!! Another person who loves "The Stand!" I think it's the best book King has written, and I keep hoping he'll produce another just as good. I stopped reading his books at "Pet Sematary."

I could never get into S.King.

Wichi Dude - No, that would be the BIL that lives here in NH.

Buffy - I haven't read all his books, and don't plan on it. Pet Cemetery freaked me out too.

I got a new book...I got a new book....Hunky Husband just bought me (today!) the "New Oxford American Dictionary" for my birthday!! It just came out on 5/2/2005. It came with a CD from which I downloaded the dictionary to my iPAQ. Wunderbar! Since it rained on me while I was planting the 3 tomato plants that I picked up the other day, I had given up on outside work, anyway. 'Tis a good thing.

I'll bet no one else has a mother that looks forward to receiving a new dictionary for their Birthday!

*blushing* Sorry, Bogie. I got carried away there. You have such a burden to bear with the mother that you have. Maybe in your next life you'll get lucky!
