I might be going to Cumulus Inc. tonight. Something about going to a restaurant whose name has punctuation makes me a bit excited. Also, I have bourgeois eating habits, which will surely be the death of me in this upcoming recession.

I requested that the City Library purchase Philip Pullman’s The Shadow in the North, and it finally came in last week. They had the other three books in the series, which I’ve read, but not this, the second one. I would have bought it myself, but when I was a kid, I used to devour the library’s YA books about gutsy, interesting heroines. It’s kind of a wish of mine to perpetuate that experience for someone else.

You couldn’t do better than query my decision to begin yet another book — meanwhile, I haven’t started The Adventures of Augie March yet, which is my book club’s next book. But The Shadow in the North is great, and it won’t take me very long. I need some action (as in ‘lights, camera…’, you naughty thing!) until I can get the next season of Spooks on DVD.

Update: Got Season 4 of Spooks last night. Rupert Penry-Jones, here I come.
