What am I doing right at this moment? I'm multitasking. I'm drinking a strawberry margarita and eating sour gummy gummy worms. (It's an interesting combination.) But that's not all! I'm also goofing off on the internet, while rereading Saiyuki. And I just got back from the bookstore. I had a coupon, you see. Those are words that doom me every time. Those and, "It was a deal." I bought Summon's Christian Miscellany: An Amusingly Informative Collection of Unexpected Facts, Curiosities, and Trvia, The Vagina Monologues (it's rather shocking that I didn't already own this), and The Hebrew Goddess, which, as you might guess, is about goddess worship in Judaism. But these are not the best purchases. No, the best purchase is Lesbian Sex. I bought it for, uh, research purposes. You see, every time I write femslash, it winds up as the same old "fingers and/or tongue in one partner, then the other." Boring, yeah? Stupidly, I used to have another book with the same title, but I sold it. (Sometimes I sell my books, mostly in an effort to make room and money for new books. I usually regret it because I'll want to read the books I got rid of.) On the other hand, that book had simple black and white drawings. This new book has color photos. Color. Photos.

The names of the positions themselves are priceless. "Backdoor Imperialism," "Opening Pandora's Box," "Sappho's Smile," "The Bush Agenda," "Riveting Rosie," "Anaïs and June," "Tipping the Velvet." I could go on. However, I'm not sure that I'll be able to interestingly or accurately describe these positions in my stories. If this makes you think that that fact makes the book a wasted purchase, I will remind you of the COLOR PHOTOS.

But it's for research purposes. Really.

I also bought some CDs. Melissa Etheridge's The Awakening, Fleetwood Mac's Greatest Hits, and Tori Amos' Jackie's Strength single. Yeah, money burns a hole in my pocket.
