OK, back to books....
I'm still working my way through a massive pile which my dad bought me at the bookshop (the fateful error... "OK, Katie, get what you want." "... Huh?" "I want to buy you some books, so you can choose what you like." "..... How many?" "As many as you want." ".... Dad, you have no idea what you've just done..." *dashes to the sci-fi/ fantasy section, and returns about ten minutes later with an armful of books*). Currently am reading 'Pyramids' in the Discworld series, and a book of fairy tales which my mum bought me to cheer me up. Hans Christian Anderson had the weirdest sense of humour, I swear.

*snrk*
It keeps making me sad though. I'm half through the bit about Theseus, and I keep having to put it down to sigh.

Theseus was a bit of a git.

Scratch that. He should have stayed stuck down in Hades.

Yup. Heracles, you were STUPID!
Ah, it's nice talking about Greek Myths and the other person actually understanding/caring

It is indeed. When I study Classics, you can come and stay with me at uni and come to lectures with me, and we can have a banner saying 'THESEUS IS A GIT WHO SHOULD HAVE STAYED IN HADES'.

And there's another one he could make: 'PARENTES MEI DIMIDIUM EUROPAE DESPOLIA VERUNT. EGO TAMEN NIL ACCEPI PRAETER HANC TUNICULAM MISELLAM' - 'My parents plundered half of Europe and all I got was this lousy T-shirt.'

*giggle* Will you let me get a T-shirt like that for Christmas? It's just, I keep offering books and you insist your mother will buy them...not that I'm offended, I like being able to buy prezzies for people, 'cause usually I've got no idea what to buy them
