I've been doing some work on my Booklist in a vague attempt to get it up to date. I was adding some Sheri S. Tepper books and needed to check the series order so made the mistake of going onto Wikipedia to check it.
Yup, I promptly spent lots of time looking up odd things and learning interesting facts (with a small break in the middle to fetch in the laundry cos it's started raining).

"I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read, and all the friends I want to see." - John Burroughs
About Me
- Kate
- I live in a houseful of books with my fabulous man, my beautiful daughter, and a crazy cat. I love cross-stitch, lie-ins, reading new books, red sneakers, motorsport and spending time with my family. I'd love to go to Paris, San Francisco and Los Angeles. Despite everything (or maybe because of it), I still believe in Happily-Ever-After.

Damn you Wikipedia timehole!
Last night I started looking for "bomb number 20" and ended up at "metasyntactic variables"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metasyntactic_variables
Am I allowed to say you look slightly pensive in your new photograph? Or maybe it's just the drink...
I was rather tipsy at the time, and worried about what colour my hair would be on the photo!
Glad to see it's not just me that gets sucked into Wiki.
