House and I have been raiding the school library's supply of old card-catalog cards; since technology has apparently made old-fashioned things of that nature obsolete, the librarians have helpfully put out the old cards in little baskets dotted in convenient places around the library for students to use as notecards.
Or, of course, said students can also conduct giggly, daring raids of the baskets to pick and choose which particularly interesting/amusing/weird/nostalgic cards they'd like to keep for themselves forever and ever.
(Interestingly, some of the titles listed can be made into amazingly dirty jokes with the addition of the ever-wonderful phrase in your pants.)
So I have a card listing Roald Dahl's The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar and Six More, which is an awesome, beautiful book that took me about two or three re-reads in fourth grade to understand properly. I recommend you reading it as soon as humanly possible.
In other news, the Six Little Curly Fries One-Year (woot) Anniversary is coming up. It's quite exciting, really. I don't think any of us expected to last this long. But we did. :D
Here's a bit of the extra-special one-year banner:
I think I'm getting better at colouring things. |

ReplyDeleteand omg. xiy, we really should ask one of the (less scary) librarians about what happened to the other cards... like, the ones /not/ about poetry, ballet, or sports :P
@House: YES. We should. xD
ReplyDeleteKitty!!! Hooray!!!
ReplyDeleteWere we gonna think about switching days on the one-year-anniversary? Because we should plan the organization of that.
Virgil wants Fridays.
Lynda wants Monday!
ReplyDeleteBut I want Friday! Though I suppose I could settle for Saturday. . . Hm. :|a
ReplyDeleteI recommend you reading it as soon as humanly possible.
ReplyDeleteHow about we let anyone content with their day keep it... for example, House gets Fridays ^_^
ReplyDeleteokay, I /might/ be willing to give up the best day of the week. BUT we absolutely need an /organized/ way of going about this; we shouldn't just spontaneously call out days like last time... *rolls eyes*
ReplyDelete@Picking up Women: Goodness, I clicked on the linky thing to your blog...
ReplyDelete@other 6LCF, I don't think it's for our young eyes. But, hey! It's a commenter! WELCOME!!!!!
