Sharing the Love

The compliment I received from Shane here is one that I would like to echo and amplify for everyone I know. YOU TOO ARE A POTENTIAL ICON OF FANTABULOUSITY! And, lucky me, some of you flat out are icons already. May we all righteously transcend our own epics ...

W.B Yeats, Oscar Wilde, and Dylan Thomas shot glasses are now on my kitchen counter. =D-- Shane

And Shane back:

Simone, you're an icon, or you should be if you so choose. There was an
excellent quote I heard last weekend, originally from Frank Black of The
Pixies fame. He said that being cool is about "transcending your own
epic, and doing it righteously."

And your books aren't all in boxes, so you've got me there.

Well, 95% of my books ARE in boxes now. The rest are on my desk or holding up my busted-out couch!!!
