kascheAaaaaargh! I'm an ass. D: I entirely forgot to the gifts I have received! Quickly done:
The Triumph of Time (Bill/Remus), by ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
celandineb (NWS)
Necessary Supplies (Remus/Sirius), by xylodemon (NWS)
...both NWS, since apparently all I sign up for lately are smutty exchanges. What is the world coming to, I wonder...
Allllllso, The Dark Tower.(Wow, but I'm spamming like mad today.) (I'd started writing the entry yesterday. ;P)
So, I've listened to The Gunslinger's audiobook - which was all right, I guess? In an unremarkable kind of way? I don't hate it, but I wasn't head over heels for it either. It was maybe - too much western-like for me? I don't really know. The relationship between Jake and Roland is the cutest thing, though. I really liked them. ♥
Then I started The Drawing of Three, and woah! It made a totally different impression! The way it opened worked so well for me - I was so captivated by the lobstrosity scene, that I didn't realize it was 1:30 (a.m., I mean) until I checked the clock. And it didn't happen just then! And awwwwwww, EDDIE. I have such a soft spot for him! There was something weird about seeing him straight, but aw! I love you all the same!
I can't wait to be home to start the next one in the series ;D Even though, if I hear one more time that the world had moved oooohhn I might not be able to keep from gigglesnorting. I mean. I understand the pathos, I do, but.
...anyway, I'm realizing that I tend to eat up audiobooks like I'm starved. When I'm walking, when I'm drawing, when I'm eating, I'm even ironing more because of them (it's the kindof brainless activity that's the perfect complement to audiobooks), anytime I don't have to use my brains or actually concentrate on anything you will find me with my headphones on. Of course, it also causes potentially embarrassing moments - try listening to a funny bit when you're inside a public bathroom - but it's all in good fun anyway. *g*
