nausicaa83Spent a lovely day with Tati, we walked on the beach trying to fight off our shared incoming cold by inhaling the fresh salty air, watched A Study In Pink for the 100th time, sang harmonies on Rock Band. The usual. ^^
Then I came home, and there were a couple of packages on my doorstep.
My Kindle is here! I called it "221b Baker Street" and downloaded every fic I had bookmarked on AO3 (bless that site), and then I got a ebook copy of the complete Sherlock Holmes stories too. It's very easy to use, and the background is a nice light grey one, perfect for someone with my eyesight problems. Now I can bring my favourite fanfics with me everywhere, I'm so happy. *_______*
And my deerstalker hat is here too! I wasn't expecting it before Easter, it was such a nice surprise! I obviously had to put it on right away, even if I bought it for display. It fits perfectly, it's warm and comfy. I can't for the life of me understand why Sherlock dislikes it so much. :D
For a picture of yours truly wearing a death frisbee, this way, please. :D
First attempt at using the self-timer on my camera. I'm learning, even if in the rush I didn't push the chair out of the way and almost fell off the couch. XD

Date: 2012-04-06 07:44 pm (UTC)I was never interested in e-readers because I love collecting books. I had a library card when I was a kid, but I soon told my dad that I was a Book Capitalist and when I liked a book I wanted to own it. Sadly, I'm not joking, it really happened. :D
But now with AO3 I realized there are so many wonderful possibilities, and with Tati living two hours from here during the summer, one I get to spend on a bus, a book collection that weighs less than my cellphone and takes virtually no place in my bag was too good to be true. And it was the fanfics that finished me. I don't own a laptop, and I always find really good, multichaptered fics around 11pm, and I'm stuck on my desk chair for the next two hours at least. :D
Thank you! ♥ The song on his coat is this one (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qv3w3_UmVE), because I decided months ago every song by Devotchka, even covers, is a Sherlock/John song. *_________*
