Neiling in on Insanity

Last post of the year and what do I have got to say? I've finally succumbed to the dreamy side of things, real bad. I bought myself Neil Gaiman's The Sandman Vol. 1: Preludes and Nocturnes for x'mas, ensuring myself that I only bought it because I wanted to know what the hype is all about and I'll never buy a second one. Yeah right. Here I am in my fourth in no time at all after reading the first one 3 times in a row. It just grabs you, the story I meant. In fact, I got my Kino card all for that and finally got myself the graphic version of my most beloved Stardust, 170 beautiful pages of graphics and prose, lacking only his royal signature, which I held dear in my paperback copy. Once upon a 10 years ago, my literary world was Robert Jordan, Tad Williams. Today, I'm abandoning Tad Williams' Shadow March, a book airen bought me for x'mas for the Morpheus' dreamworld. On last count, I think I might have about 12 of his works of literary arts on hand - two of which are signed so give yourself a pat on the back Mr Smurfie and I dedicate his character from Sandman, Mervyn pumpkin head to you. I had a dream of Dream and of Death last night. Airen says I've been reading too much, too many. I supposed he is right. Time to take a little break from his worlds and take a little purity test in which I'm 10% more pure than the average, much better than I hope really.

Your 100 Point Purity Test Results You answered "yes" to 24 of 100 questions, making you 76.0% Gaiman pure (24.0% Gaiman corrupt); that is, you are 76.0% pure in the Gaiman domain. Your Weirdness Factor (AKA Uniqueness Factor) is 13%, based on a comparison of your test results with 13111 other submissions for this test. The average purity for this test is 66.1%. The first submission for this test was received November 2, 1999.
American Gods You are American Gods! You are mysterious, intelligent, and creative. To the rest of the world you may seem a little standoffish, but really youre just a quiet person. Youre sort of bookish and are intrigued by mythology and fairy tales. You might be Wiccan or Pagan, either that or youre unreligious. You have a sarcastic sense of humor and are the kind of person people like to talk to because youre such a good listener. *~Which Neil Gaiman book are you?~*
His books are THAT intriguing. Ask me for them if you're interested. My library is always open, as with my other books. Just follow the rules of keeping them in as is condition and returning them when you're done - it's ok if you do take a long, just don't lose them. And of coz, I'm American Gods too. Sunken deep into the Gaiman poison and waiting for the normal paperback versions of Anansi Boys. I probably need a good night's sleep.
