quandam phone makes me roam

My sister-in-law bought me Michael Crichton's Timeline last Christmas, and I just started reading it. There was a movie made but, well, book first. I think that even if I didn't know it was a Crichton book when I started it, I'd know it just by the style. It feels just like Jurassic Park (the only other book of his I've read). But this isn't bad; I'm just unsure of how that kind of terrory-suspense will mesh with a story that is, as far as I can tell, not that much about terror. Action and excitement and suspense, yes, but no Velociraptors. Heh.

I forgot to pack my skirt in my backpack this morning. I've spent all day wearing my green fleece pants with my nice black blouse. It's kind of amusing. But very comfortable.

I've joined a Yahoo group for Massachusetts bellydancers. I might have a class to attend as early as next Tuesday. This makes me very, very happy.

I don't want to do work. I want to continue reading Timeline!

Timeline is the first Michael Crichton book I didn't read. I had gotten bored of him by then, and really pissed off at the horrible botchery that was each of the the Michael Crichton movies (except Jurassic Park, which was too Disney but not awful).

Answer your email, bitch (I sent one to the email address listed in your LJ user info).

I saw The Lost World, I think. I must've managed to forget about it. I completely ignored the third one. Therefore I'm not jaded as you are... (yet)

JP3 was actually better than JP2, though The Lost World was one of my favorite Michael Crichton books.

And according to imdb.com, JP4 is in the works.
