Elvis Costello Fan Forum

Glad you're enjoying Plot , Otis. Still haven't read much Roth (just that one and Sabbath's Theater ), but look forward to American Pastoral (which Red is currently working on) soon. Currently working on Slaughterhouse-Five very slowly. Have had a lot going on that has made it hard to just sit down...

You know, I need more Lloyd. All I have is Rattlesnakes and I love it. Anyone care to point me in a good direction?

I registered to vote, woo-hoo! My first election and I'm hella excited.

And, on a random note, I love Frasier. I love it even more now that I got my boyfriend hooked on it. All I want for my birthday/Xmas is the box set. Seriously, that's all I want.

I finally got my new laptop! Woot!

Happy birthday! I hope you had/are having/will have a great day! (Gotta cover all my bases, there.)

Sorry dude. You all make me feel like a youngin again... Kidding, kidding!

December, my junior year of high school. My parents had played Armed Forces when I was younger, and I decided to listen to it one night on a whim. I was hooked, and started listening to My Aim, which they had as well. Around February I picked up This Year's Model and quickly became a total Costello-...

Working on Hocus Pocus by Vonnegut, who else? I was trying The Children of Hurin by Tolkien, edited by one of his sons, I believe, but right now I need something easier to read.

Thanks everyone. It's really exciting to be here; living "on my own" is really wonderful. And Verbal, I can tell you most definitely that the boys are not completely straight-laced, and the talk certainly is two-faced. As for the frigidity of girls you speak of, I really do not want to fin...

Migdd: Sorry to hear that. Even I know this economy sucks majorly and I'm not even a part of it yet. Verbal: Glad to hear the little one is doing well! I imagine she's still as cute as she was the last time we saw pictures. I've been attending to college financial stuff, other college stuff, and mor...

There seems to be a "record" store around the corner from my dorm. I haven't checked it out yet, and probably won't; it seems to be mostly gangster rapping music, and I doubt it's actually got records. Although, nothing ventures, nothing gained, right?

Her hair terrifies me.

If anyone cares, after a summer of alternately tearing my hair out and researching relaxation techniques, I am firmly ensconced in my dorm. I'm sorry I haven't been around; a love of names and a life full of stress have prevented me from being around much. Just letting you guys know that I'm a-ok an...

Happy Birthday Spooky! Sorry I haven't been around much; it's been extremely busy around here. I'm writing to you from my dorm. Ooh la la. Hope you had a fantastic day!

Finished Beloved by Toni Morrison, creepy. And now I've got to get to the library.

Hope everything goes well, Red; I'm the exact same way with even routine surgeries.

I've switched over to the dark side (Firefox). I'm enjoying the spell-check immensely.

Well, from the last update, I've read Frankenstein (Which I really liked), re-read all three LOTR books and a lot of the appendices (I still love them), started re-reading Sense and Sensibility but then got to the library and got: Vonnegut's Welcome To The Monkey House (title story was brilliant), a...

Lucinda's West, Liz Phair's Exile In Guyville and my own copy of the O Brother Where Art Thou? soundtrack (finally!). Local used CD store = win.

I love the Art Museum. I also love how people line up to take pictures with the Rocky statue outside of the museum...

I swear to god, sometimes I just want to strangle my mother. Whoopity do, I'll be running the dryer at 1:30! Woo! Yeah, it's such a huge deal! Seriously, no matter what I do, she bitches. Bitches all day. Argh! And before you tell me that it heats up the house, I know. But she just goes on and on......

RIp George. You were great, man.

Sorry for your loss, SL.

I'm very satisfied with my combos as of late. Zelda Sandrine, anyone?

Heard Alison in Spencer's in the mall. It was amazing, since it made Spencer's bearable.

Happy Birthday, Mr. Average! No matter how much I might disagree with you sometimes, I've always admired your obvious intellect.
