Brain temporarily full. Please call back later.

Oh, my head hurts. Too many pages in too short a time. Too much stuff going on.

Everyone should go read The Dark Tower books by Stephen King. I finished the sixth book, Song of Susannah, today. I need to take a day off before starting the final book for a variety of reasons. My eyes need to catch up, my brain needs to catch up, and I need to go take a very long walk to make up for being a hideous book slug for several days now.

Plus, I'm reluctant for the journey to end. As just about anyone who knows me can tell you, I deal poorly with change. I think some characters I've become attached to are going to die, and I just don't want to go through that doorway. Sigh. Yes, I'm a total goober. Yes, they're only books. But, dammit.


If ya ken this sigul, say thankee-sai, gunslinger!

(The Mid-World version of the "Thank a teacher" bumper sticker.
Can also read "My child earned his guns early at the Gilead Academy"...)



"I do not aim with my hand.
He who aims with his hand has forgotten the face of his father.
I aim with my Eye.

I do not shoot with my hand.
He who shoots with his hand has forgotten the face of his father.
I shoot with my Mind.

I do not kill with my hand.
He who kills with his hand has forgotten the face of his father.
I kill with my Heart."

- The Gunslinger's Litany by Stephen King

This is really good stuff, guys. Really good stuff.
