fangs and fans

[orangerful]

faeriesfolly will be happy to know that I did pick up some fangs tonight from Hot Topic. I haven't done the whole molding-to-my-teeth thing yet, probably try that tomorrow or Sunday. My one tooth is sorta crooked so I'm trying to figure out exactly how I'm going to get it on there. But now we can totally vamp it up at Dragon*Con - Merlotte's after dark ;-)

Today was looooooooong. Very slow at the library because I think everyone in Bel Air went to the beach. Seriously, every question I had yesterday was "what is a good beach read?" so I'm pretty sure all of our regulars were at the shore.

I have a bag full of stuff to talk about at the meeting tomorrow. My Star Wars club is meeting and the theme is one I suggested - what other stuff do we collect! Well, you know I have a LOT of other fandoms. I put a few of my more academic Whedonverse books into my bag, along with my little mini-slayer scythe. I also have a bunch of my Battlestar Galactica action figures. I put Abby Cadabby in there too, just for giggles. I'm hoping that other members of the group will participate and fill the time, but I wanted to be prepared. If they see I am prepared to babble on about my love for Joss, they might interject with their own stuff.

I watched the trailer for 'The Lovely Bones' and went and dug out my copy. I snagged a copy from the donations pile ages ago, back when the movie was first announced. But since the book did not have a due date, it just sat on my bookshelf. But I will make myself read it now because the trailer looked really good and I want to be able to compare/contrast with the book.

4 days until my Boston/Maine trip and 26 days until the Dragon*Con Road Trip!!!!!!!! Can't wait, I'm in need of some adventure.

Okay, I'm not sure if its kinda wrong to use LJ to ask you librarian questions. . . .

I have read EVERY Sophie Kinsella book. (The latest one - Twenties Girl - best yet! ! ! !) So I'm on a chick-lit kick. (A guilty pleasure!) I got some recomendations from amazon, but do you have any? Now THOSE are beach reads.

I kinda wana go to Dragon con some time - my group doesnt really do it. I also heard bands like mine do gigs....

Have you tried any of the Jennifer Crusie or Jennifer Weiner? Both of them are considered to be well-written chick-lit. They've both been writing for awhile so they should be pretty easy to find at a library or bookstore. I know Weiner just had a new one come out that's on the bestsellers. Or try googling "Sophie Kineslla Read Alikes", I see a lot of lists that librarians have put together with more chick-lit experience than me. :)

Don't wait for others to go, just go! That's what I'm doing. I found some online buddies to travel with and meet up with, but I just had to go! Def. sounds like something you would love. :)

You got fangs! Fitting them is the funniest part. They have a big enough opening that it shouldn't matter if your tooth is sorta crooked. Mine are weird and a bit fang-y as it is, and they fit fine. haha. (They were so much worse before braces.)
