*hugs* It is unaccountable that something as joyous as paying bills did not improve matters, especially on so little sleep!

I am a little sorry that it was not adapted for film like its fellows, since I would have liked to see the casting for the initially peripheral, ultimately book-stealing role of Tom Thorne,

They should have done it, then! I mean, it sounds like there are reasonable odds they could have improved the thing while they were at it even, so a win all round. One for the alternate universe tour of non-existence fictional media some day? (I mean, once we get that time machine, I'm sure all things are possible, right?)
