Stolen from kcst. Procrastination.

Give me 1000 comments in this entry. Or whatever, really. YOU, in particular, don't have to supply the whole 1000, but a tiny contribution would be nice. Then let me know if you post this in your journal and I'll return the favor.

Dudes, so this is your chance to spam me with anything! Pictures, lyrics, the word SPAM over and over. Feel free to tell me something about yourself, or screen your comments. Do whatever you want! It's all up to you.

Okay, so I realise 1000 is a tall number so just spam away and we'll see where we get up to. Please entertain me!

And yes, RP comments are fun. (So, fourthed? :D)

I spent two hours doing nothing but listening to music and uploading songs to spam my friends page with and I am now bored and I don't want to write like I should be doing, because I'm lazy and have too much stuff to write to pick where to start. And I should be reading, because I have three books I need to finish soon, but I have been lazy about reading, too. It's kind of sad, but spamming friends pages and commenting requres less thought.

Mm, music. :D I'll have to look at that once I get my computer to stop griping at me. There's a lot I ought to be writing too, but I have little to no inspiration to actually do so. Which three books are you near finishing?

Computers are the spawn of the devil; mine currently hates me for downloading and uploading so much music these past few days. Good luck finding the inspiration to write! I have the inspiration but no motivation or will power (damn that laziness!) And the books are... Imajica by Clive Barker (which I've been reading for quite some time now, I just put it down to concentrate on other books), some trashy romance novel my best friend (a gay guy, at that) has been pestering me to read for like, a year now(although I finally did manage to finish that one) and 'The Happy Prince and Other Tales' by Wilde (which I picked up today, because I did not feel like reading anything else and I didn't feel like reading anything else by him). Speaking of books, I need recommendations. Anything you can suggest?

I've had the motivation in passing, though mostly ended up turning that into random character analysis. Laziness is the death of much. :O Hmm. Off the top of my head, which I think I already told you before, there's The Kite Runner, and I'm really liking the The Hours, by Michael Cunningham. I also recommend his other novel A Home at the End of the World. Digging into the historical fiction category, there's As Meat Loves Salt by Maria McCann, which isn't as cheesy romance-y as the title probably sounds, and The Persian Boy by Mary Renault, since I'm a not quite closeted Alexander the Great fan. Don't know if you've checked her out before, but I recommend Storm Constantine for the fantasy area; Wraeththu tends to be a good place to start.

(And most of my recs are slashy in nature, save Kite Runner.)

Thanks for the recs. :D. I tried Constantine's books once, but I could not get into it, as such is the case with me and a lost of fantasy novels (I think I need to be in the right mood for it and I haven't lately, unless it's modern fantasy-ish stuff). I've been thinking about picking up some of Renault's works, but I wasn't sure where to start at, so that's definitely going on my reading list. And I will check out The Hours; is it anything like the movie? A friend is actually reading The Kite Runner now, so I'm going to borrow it from him when he's done. I'll look into the others as well, I'm sure my library or local book store has one of them to pick up when I am done with my current books.

I like her on most days; on a modern fantasy front she wrote her Grigori trilogy, which seems harder to come by (Stalking Tender Prey I believe is the first one). It's more heavily based on playing with the fallen angel stuff it takes it's grounding in though. I think The Persian Boy is where most people start with Renault, though if you want to go in chronological order Fire From Heaven comes first. Her stuff is mostly in ancient Greece, though she's got a couple other books that take place in the early twentieth century (like The Charioteer, which was WWI or WWII, I forget). It's fairly similar to the movie; most of the major differences I seem to be picking up on are in terms of the visuals the book gives me versus what I remember in the movie.
