KnitChick's Crafty Ramblings

I'm weird. I'm not a big holiday movie person. My Christmas movie would really be Ghostbusters II (what, it counts, it's Christmas time!)

My fiancee rengeek :) He's growing out his mustache for November, to raise cancer awareness. Because we're both passionate about fundraising for the American Cancer Society through Relay for Life, with our team, Team GEEK.

Oh my goodness. Um, that I have way too many interests?

On the easy accessible shelves right now is a combination of manga (Gintama, Ghost Hunt, Library Wars, Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle, Kingdom Hearts, etc), Doctor Who tie-in novels (both recent hardcovers and a few of the old Target paperbacks), a bunch of knitting books, Torchwood tie-in novels, John Barrowman's autobiographies, Star Trek novels, some old scifi (including Scavengers in Space, which Jack is reading in my icon), Torchwood and Doctor Who encyclopedias, a couple of baking books, some other graphic novels (Scary Godmother, Ghostbusters, Star Trek manga, Doctor Who, etc), Ghostbusters novel, Quantum Leap novels, and more. And that's just what I can get to without moving stuff!!!

If all my books were together there'd be that plus lots more scifi novels, crafting books, compilations of comic strips (I only have one volume of Unshelved and when I have $$ that will need to be corrected), lots of true ghost stories, history books, Harry Potter, more cookbooks, LOTS more knitting books, Shakespeare, and more.

Yeah that library Belle has in Beauty and the Beast? I so needs it. BADLY. Of course if I had that many shelves they would be filled. And organized properly with a local catalog with full MARC records in it. :D

Ghostbusters.

Seriously, one day I was bored out of my skull and I started from the librarian walking through the stacks and mentally played the movie through. I was just past the "Fire and brimstone coming down from the sky, rivers and seas boiling! Forty years of darkness, earthquakes, volcanoes! The dead rising from the grave! Dogs and cats, living together, mass hysteria!" lines when I realized what I was doing and scared myself.

I know Ghostbusters II slightly less well. But enough that every time I see the Gainsboro's Blue Boy painting I have a giggle fit. (the bathroom in Mary's Attic where ARFTCo's been doing their TV reruns has a replica of Blue Boy. Yes, I cracked up when I saw it.)

Easy, that would be for the Apple store and it would go toward my iMac that I am coveting. It's around $2,000 so that would go a long way toward it.

Now, if I got a $5,000 Apple store gift certificate then I would share with friends because I'd get the iMac and a gigantic Time Capsule (was I imagining it or did I see a 2 or 5 TB one?), then the remaining money would go toward an iPhone for me, and iPods for Carole & Joanna (probably a Touch for Carole and a Nano for Joanna). If I had any money still, then Apple TV and a portable external hard drive that's around 300-500 GB to keep my video collection on.

Yes, I have sadly thought this out very thoroughly.

THIS.

Total WIN.
