So, it is party time again, folks!

[wiseheart]

Each year this time, we launch my virtual birthday party, which starts on October 1 and ends on October 9 at midnight, sharp. The goals of the party are to post as many comments and collapse as many threads as possible, on as many new pages as we can. It is always great fun, as you can see if you check out the similar entries of the last few years.

This year, I'll also throw the real party at mid-time - and post the recipes of all the food that will be there for you, so that you can all participate if you want to. Virtual food has no calories.

Fandom-related discussions are as welcome as the ones about coffee or chocolate (just to name a few favourites from previous years), and, of course, pictures and recipes of birthday cakes. ;)

So, drop by, tell your story, post your pics or silly poems, ask questions you always wanted to ask and have a good time!

Soledad, in excited expectation




Oh, and by the way, to provide birthday gifts hobbit-style, I've got a revived story and a Kansas 2 update for you.

Enjoy!

I just finished The Princess Bride for a fiction book, and haven't started a new one. My current for pleasure non-fiction book is The Arctic Grail by Pierre Berton, about the search for the North-West passage and the race to the North Pole. I actually started it before the news came about the Canadians finding one of Sir John Franklin's lost ships from his final (and fatal) Arctic voyage.

For work, I am currently reading a number of textbooks on Solid State Physics and Materials Science, because I am teaching modules in those two subjects at the moment. They are mostly also quite enjoyable, with the one exception of Feynman's Lectures on Physics which is pure joy to read! The man had a brilliant mind, and was able to explain physics clearly without dumbing it down.

Sounds interesting :)

It is! I wish I had time to read the entire three volume set of Feynman's lectures...
