So I just discovered Weird Tales magazine (famed for contributions by HP Lovecraft and Robert E Howard) is still around. I've bought a couple of issues and they're pretty good.

I just finished reading Stanislaw Lem's The Cyberiad

and am mostly through Grendel which I can't believe I had never heard of until recently


and I ordered this off of Amazon: 19 Ways of Looking at Wang Wei: How a Chinese Poem is Translated

the first two are legitimately interesting, the third one I plan on using in my classes

also some flannery o'connor compilation is sitting on my nightstand that I keep meaning to read but probably never will

My reading backlog's got several volumes of Yotsuba&! and The Illusion of Life: Disney Animation on it. I'm sure i'd enjoy them if I actually got around to reading...
if there were two guys on the moon and one of them killed the other with a rock that'd be pretty fucked up wouldn't it?

I finally got around to watching Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, and now that stilted preconceptions have been established, and the story is spoiled- fresh in my mind, I got the novel out at the library. Gonna start on that tonight.
