Aug. 12th, 2004 09:53 amYou will have noticed, because you are all with the keen observy-ness, that I now have my website linked to from this LJ. Also that the LJ title has changed.
I still won't be using my real name on LJ, for various personal reasons that are much too boring to explain, but I will be linking to posts I make on my "official" journal, in order that I can get a conversation going here and actually MAKE posts over there. Complicated? Yes, I know. It's my head. What did you expect?
Of course, I still have to think of something to say. ::sigh::
Recent reading: Wit, Testament of Youth, Night, Les liaisons dangereuses (in what I suspect to be a fairly insipid translation--must find French edition!), Tolkien and the Great War. Currently reading The Neandertals (downstairs) and The Duino Elegies as translated by David Young (upstairs).
The house is in a state of fermented chaos. My books are about half-unpacked--although at least I have Wolverine guarding the printer again, so I have some small sense of secuirty. Today I put the first coat of paint on the Pink Closet in the office (we all know it will need a second coat, and I'm not going to hurt myself by trying to pretend otherwise).
And I'm still trying to figure out where to put my fragile knick-knacks so the cats can't destroy them.
