I once thought I had experienced a timequake. There was this huge rumbling noise, lights started flickering on and off, furniture trembled and lamps fell and shattered. Afterwards there was an awful smell in the air.

Later I realised it was just the chilli fajitas I had the night before.

And that is why I want Timequake.

He *is* gay. He turned down a girl sandwich. Therefore I should win it because I feel quite terrible.

I like timequake a lot. I have borrowed it from the library twice, and absolutely adore Vonnegut. I am also not going to make any fart jokes, and even though I pledged this morning that I hated books, after having book nightmares all night about them(thinking that my sleeping was like reading a book and that I had to keep on reading even when I thought I had enough sleep, and then worrying about Fiona being crushed by books), I would like it.
I don't know how to work this white computer properly, so I don't know how to word count and playing brain training made me stupid and I can no longer count at all.

Now, it is bribery time:
HEY, HENRY REMEMBER ME? I AM SOFT AND CUDDLY LIKE BEAR! We spent a special night together on Thursday, no?
And also:
Kerryn, you are tall and graceful and effervesant like a swan and also a gizelle. PICK ME please.

I used to live in Doonside, and could borrow Timequake from Blacktown library, on an old paper card protected by a plastic sleeve. This card is the same one I had since I was about 8, and they never made me replace it even though they switched to credit-style cards at least 8 years ago.
Now I don't live in Blacktown, and having your copy of Timequake would remind me of my old library card.
Plus I haven't actually read Timequake yet.
