The pun was amusing at the least– and actually, the snow didn’t come this far north. It’s been unseasonably warm here (this means: It occasionally hits above freezing), which is kind of nice.

And he really does keep to himself, I promise.

(Mainiacs, is, I believe, the accepted term. But I am a military brat and only live here for the Adventure and Fun, so I wouldn’t know for sure.)

hrmm…snow…that sounds so…difficult. and riddle me this, why is everyone on ever social media channel ever from manhattan complaining about the snow? where are the Canadians, Vermonters, Maininites (err…Mainers? Mainenese?) and assorted ppl north of NYC?

and i don’t believe you about the king thing. this is totally the thing that’s supposed to lull me into a false sense of security early in the movie

too bad about #magnatefail. did he at least have a magnatetic personality.

okay, okay, sorry about that pun…well…kina

Gables was only a jock house of you count real time strategy games as sports do give my best to DE; tell him i remember that year of sharing an office fondly.

I don’t think there’s a good /genre/ bookstore here. Or if there is, it’s covered in snow. My friend’s aunt’s cousin (or some other obscure relation) runs a bookstore downtown that I go to, but it tends to the mainstream, as such places do.

And Stephen King rarely emerges from his castle, I promise. I attend his Alma Mater, and have yet to encounter the man, I promise.

Also, the magnate really isn’t all that ruthless. He ends up falling in love with his baby-mama/coerced-contracted wife in the end, after all.

Which one was Gables?? Was that the jock one just above the SAC? (Where Will Bonner and Dan theothergayone lived?)

If you get as far as New Haven then obviously at least a visit *with* DE is called for, but I personally quite like going back to Wallyworld once every….er, ok. Haven’t done it in a while:) But Archie Moore’s! HALF MOON CHAI! Panda Garden scallion pancakes! (Tom’s to see if my picture is still on the wall:) …Plus then you can leave and feel so grateful that you *can leave*.

I’ll admit that Bangor wasn’t eggsactly on the list. but maybe they have an amazing genre bookstore? somehow whenever i’m in ME, i always kinda frightened that i’ll bump into steven king in his brief cameo just before the world descends into a horror film. but that’s like…irrational…right?

so how ruthless, exactly, is that magnate. because the last one i got from the factory, was a freaken pushover

*itinerant? We might entirely enjoy such an experience. (Though I warn you, we might drag you up to Wallyworld to visit DE – isn’t there a bookstore there you could hit?.) Linds can tell you I give good troubleshooting.

I don’t suppose north-east will ever involve Bangor, ME?

And… now that I’ve finished reading way too much of a book that isn’t even released yet (why do I do this to myself?), I must finish ‘Ruthless Magnate, Convenient Wife’ before the roommate returns from wherever she is and catches me at it and mocks me mercilessly.

Also, nothing I’ve seen yet has made me change my mind on the pre-order. Yay!

careful what you offer; you might have a iternerate author on your couch whining about problems in his latest draft way more than you expected
