Currently reading: Just finished 'Big Bother', an analysis of the Big Brother shows - a particular focus on the Australian version, but mentioning its overseas stablemates. As insightful reviews and analyses go...well, it was pretty shallow, sadly. Still in the library bag and about to be read: Tanith Lee's 'White As Snow' (I haven't enjoyed many of Tanith Lee's books except for Silver Metal Lover, and I hated the sequel to that, so I'm a bit doubtful over this one); Ira Levin's 'Sliver' (given that he wrote 'Rosemary's Baby', 'Stepford Wives' and 'The Boys From Brazil', I reckon it's got a better than even chance that I'll like it); the Peter Beagle-edited 'Immortal Unicorn', an anthology of unicorn stories. Currently playing: Guild Wars - a MMORPG (massive multiuser online roleplayer game). Think World of Warcraft but better. Two chapters released already, in Prophecies and Factions; a third one goes online in a few days, called Nightfall. Fast paced play, excellent level of content for Prophecies and (I'm guessing from looking at the prerelease stuff) for Nightfall, amazing graphics. If you play GW and ever run across a character with the surname Varss (Deya Varss, Anya Varss, Belya Varss, Miri Varss, so on so forth), odds are it'll be one of mine. For someone who lives online, I don't do a lot of online gaming, though. GW is pretty much it. Currently watching: Husband and I are currently ploughing through the Star Trek universe - well, selected parts of it, anyway. We've watched the entire run of TNG, and we're almost at the the end of TOS at the moment. Which leaves us in a bit of a quandary; the video store doesn't have DS9 in it, and neither of us give two figs about either Voyager or Enterprise. Do we wait for DS9 (we're assured it's on the way soon) or move onto something else - say, Buffy? Or is there something else we can immerse ourselves in? Yeah, there's always BotP and review writing...
