SQUEE!

How long have I been waiting for this?
Read the book in grade 6… 1998-1999?
When did I get so fangirlishly obsessed?
Somewhere between grade 7 (waiting for The Amber Spyglass to be published)…
That would be 2000ish I guess.
Somewhere between grade 7 and grade 10 ~ 2003 when I became a sraffie…
I’ve been waiting a LONG time (SO EXCITED).
My prediction was Christmas 2009, maybe New Line can pull it off by 2007?
I hope it doesn’t suck. I’m SO EXCITED.
All the internet people here have read it;
Real life friends, check it out?
Lots of one-liners… like Val’s blog. =P
The Golden Compass, The Subtle Knife, and The Amber Spyglass, by Philip Pullman.
SO EXCITED. I think Iorek should be a little grittier ’cause he’s been in exile doing metal work and he’s not a shiny wannabe-human like Iofur.
L’optimisme retourne.
Optimism returns… not for any silly reason such as dy/dx Leibniz’s best of all possible worlds, because that kind of optimism isn’t true “things working out,” because Jacques the Anabaptist dies in the storm and better reasoning I don’t care for at the moment because I’m optimistic about something specific:
If Aric can find his friend Rosy and sell Annie’s ticket to her and if I can find “The Outsider” from the internet who is supposedly desperate for an Olympic Island ticket and sell Melly’s ticket to her, that’s stuff working out. And I always tell you it does. And while I’m not actually always right, ’cause shit happens, I think it just might work out this time.
And on the note of concerts, I’m still contemplating seeing Muse alone, but it’s now in the adventurous mood rather than the frustrated one.
Also Tiffy’s back in Toronto and we’re dimsumming tomorrow morning… by which I mean this morning because tomorrow is today. Yesterday Never Tomorrows but today does. =D
P.S. Louisa,
