I'm obsessing and I'm not done with the book itself...

So yeah, 243 wonderful pages into Good Omens and I am obsessed. I LOVE Aziraphale. And ironically, my obsession has already led to this:

Aziraphale
Congratulations! You're Aziraphale, Principality
and Angel of the Eastern Gate. You may appear
to be a befuddled bookworm who lost the
Flaming Sword, but you're perfectly capable of
making Mafia agents Disappear. You also
understand the importance of Arrangements with
agents from the Other Side. Good work!


Which Good Omens Character Are You?

*very amused*

You know what the funniest thing was? As I was reading (first 146 pages), I kept thinking to myself 'Aziraphale is so, so, stereotypically gay'. And then I read this passage, which must be copied because it made me laugh so very hard:

Many people, meeting Aziraphale for the first time, formed three impressions: that he was English, that he was intelligent, and that he was gayer than a tree full of monkeys on nitrus oxide. Two of these were wrong; Heaven is not in England, whatever certain poets have thought, and angels are sexless unless they really want to make an effort. But he was intelligent. (pg 147, ACE paperback)

I would love to see a 'tree full of monkeys on nitrus oxide', just for comparison's sake.

I need ICONS for this, damnit. Icons. Must get icons. Soon. Must also finish book, then go more crazy over it all, but my hands hurt from holding it. Seriously, I got it like at, lunchtime today and I'm very, very close to finishing it.

The speed of my reading frightens me quite regularly.

*laughs* I'm so glad you're enjoying it! I read a bit more of it today during Psychology... don't look at me like that! It was only 'cos we had a substitute.

heh. ^_^

LOL. I'm on page 301 now, but eyes are closing on me, and I need to wake up to do laundry in the morning...last time I did laundry was Valentine's Day and I am very much out of socks.

Subs are good reasons to read. Anything is a good reaosn to read. Like walking, especially when you can just kinda keep an eye on the brink path to make sure you don't get like, lost or something...

So, I've got 40-somethign pages to read when I wake up, and then two books to read for classes by monday. Lol. I'd rather finish this one first. I'll probably re-read it over like, spring break or something.

Now, bed. Tata!

I have had the book for about 5 months now and haven't started it yet. I am going to. Very soon in fact. If the puppy porn ever lets up that is... Maybe I should go on a sabatical from my eljay so I can get through it...

*GASP!* INdeed. You should do whatever necessary to get hooked, then you can do whateever as a side task until you finish. *grins*

But then...giving up LJ even fora short time...*GASP!*

(Okay, I just woke up, I don't make sense...lol)

Love the icon. =)

Hooray, that's such a good book!

I'm absolutely obsessed with Crowley, which makes sense, since I also like Sirius. Anyways, yes. Check out [livejournal.com profile] lower_tadfield. Sims Aziraphale/Crowley, Slash fics, fanart and icons. Mmm.

Sorry I haven't been online too much. I'll try and get on more this weekend. >.
