    Margaret Atwood

    The longer it's been since I read this, the better it gets in my mind. I really, really, really want to give it a reread, and it's only been a year! Brilliant book.

    No, I meant 'euphemism', actually. Gizmo!? Gremlins?! No feeding after midnight!? Sheesh! Edit - ooh, you wench!

    what's everyone up to today?
