    Excellent, thanks for the Eragon review! I think I will see it while it is in theatres, I imagine it would look a lot better on the big screen, dragons and such. Maybe I'll take a quick peek through my book again before I go.

    I'm sorry you feel sick. Feel better soon, okay?

    I don't think you were misunderstood - they seemed like two different statements to me!

    Besides, belly dancing is awesome, and the costume isn't slutty. I took it for a year in high school, and I give it most of the credit for being an ok dancer in life now.

    Yup, those would be some of his stories! Unfortunately, it sounds like you have the 1941 short story (or novella) version of Nightfall. The one I have is longer because he got together with Robert Silverberg to expand on the story itself and write what happened after nightfall, so to speak. Published in 1990, I think?

    As for reading stuff as a kid and then not being able to remember what it was later... I do that too, and it drives me nuts . So what I did as a child is whenever I'd get a library book that I liked, I'd write it down. I reread and couldn't stand the thought of never reading a good book again. Still forget sometimes though.

    Yay! I'm so glad you're reading it, too! It's an addictive book, especially when the plot really picks up. I'm slowly working my way through Asimov's writings (started with Robot Dreams and then Robot Visions, then moved on to novels) and it's all great so far. Only thing is, he doesn't really write women very well. Maybe that's just me? Have you read any other Asimov books?

    Yay indeed. How's things in your neck of the woods?

    Hey, just wanted to say, it can slightly overwhelming forking out a huge wad of dough for something, but truly, I'm sure it'll be okay. Don't be too anxious, I'm rooting for ya! I bet when it comes you will completely fall in love with it and wonder why you were ever so worried! :)

    Hi, I came across one of your old questions and wrote the answer there, but truly not to worry, I am sure it will be okay :). Sorry I didn't leave you a direct message, but you had lots of pro-Mac-er's, I kinda didn't want to rain on anyone's parade. But MacBook is supposed to be better than MacBook Pro, in fact I was told to change mine for a MB - but I like the large screens :). Crossing toe's and finger's for ya!
