Y'know, I love the Dark Tower cycle and all, but I'm beginning to remember why I usually only buy books in pocket edition. See, I do most of my reading on the train and the metro, and while walking home from the station in the evening, and let me tell you, Wizards and Glass, in paperback edition? Really, really fucking heavy and unwieldy, that is, and I swear to god, that thing could double as a handy blunt object with which to knock would-be muggers uncouncious. This would be a good thing, except mysteriously, I never get mugged. Hit on, yes, and burgled, but never mugged, so I don't need a weapon, I need a book I can handle!

I'm starting on Wolves of the Calla tomorrow. Which is a hardback.

Could somebody please come and try to mug me so I can at least get something good out of the volume of this book? Please?

Okay, I'm going to have to object to being called Bubo, here. I am not my username! ;)

*hehehehe* Oh, bubo. ;-) Sorry. ;-)

I was apprehensive about using Melle, because you said you went underground and everything. What if someone types up Melle and Livejournal into Yahoo and ends up on this page? *massive angst attack* ;-) It's okay if I call you Melle on Livejournal then?

Hee! I'm no longer underground, really, and I've never minded pepole just using my name. (It's complicated.) Cal me Melle, or Sofie, either's fine with me, really.

Okido, then. :-) Easier to say Melle or Sofie than bubosquared.
I don't know if I ever told you my name. I'm not comfortable spreading my real name all over LJ, but if you look at my userinfo, my name is recognizable in the email address. It's an email adress from our broadband host. My dad used my name as an email address (would be pretty stupid to give him my online alias...) and I can't change it.

I'm always confused if I prefer people I know from slash fandom to call me Melle or Sofie, but I'l respond to either. I don't care about people knowing my real name, myself.

*nods* I noticed that from your userinfo. :) The first time I ever saw anyone put their home-address and real name on their LJ-info.
