Flowers On My Mind

I was reading LJ and trying to multi-task when I sprayed a big blast of Kitchen Spice room spray into my hair. I thought the spray nozzle was facing away from me but it obviously was not.

I normally like the fragrance but it's making me really queasy because it's not fading and it's so close to my nose. I might have to go home early to wash my hair. How do I explain that to my boss? Is it Friday yet?

Some lovely person on my friends list has posted links several times to snarky summaries of Lost episodes. My mind is mush lately and I cannot remember which of my friends it was or the snarky person's LJ name. Please help me. I promise to friend that person so it doesn't happen again.

My pea brain started working and I remembered that earlgreyhot is the friend who posts cleolinda's Lost summaries.

Here is the summary of last night's episode. Enjoy all you Lost lovers!

I am finally posting this! Thanks to bibliovixen.

You're stuck inside Fahrenheit 451. Which book do you want to be?
If you've not read it or seen the film then you need to know this is a novel of a future world where fascist anti-intellectualism rules and dissidents take it upon themselves to memorize and thus become a book, a perpetuation of a treasured work of learning or literature, against the day when it is safe once again to think freely.

I would be To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee. I did not read this until I was an adult. I was struck by how the book captures the ephemeral nature of childhood and it has two of my favorite characters of all time, Scout and Atticus.

Have you ever had a crush on a fictional character in a piece of literature?
Sydney Carton in A Tale of Two Cities. I loved the character when I read the book but was even more smitten after seeing Dirk Bogarde's portrayal of him in the 1958 film.

The last book you bought is:
The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini for book group.

The last book you read:
The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd. I read it for book group.

What are you currently reading?
The Kite Runner and Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell by Susanna Clarke.

Five books you would take to a deserted island:
The Complete Works of William Shakespeare
Moon Tiger by Penelope Lively
Love In The Time of Cholera by Gabriel García Márquez
To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee
Complete Poems by Anne Sexton

Who are you going to pass this stick to (3 persons) and why?
weelisa, luxlis and earlgreyhot because I am curious about their answers to this quiz.
