Stop all the clocks

Guess who forgot the clocks were changed this morning? Guess who woke up ostensibly at 7am to get ready for the writing marathon only to discover it was an hour earlier?

Are you sure it's Sunday and not Monday? You're positive?

Oh well, off to Common Grounds for plotting and non-outlining and caffeine and bagels... And did I mention free wifi?

Poetry again

Ok, my mother frightens me. I mentioned the "What poetry do you have on your shelves?" meme and allowed as how she might have a slightly larger collection than I did. For her own curiosity, she came through with the actual numbers. Keep in mind she was an English major in college, but she also reads poetry for fun. Along with Neil Gaiman, Terry Pratchett, Stephen King, and Dean Koontz.

Anthologies/texts that contain poetry:
Needed for college: 4
Needed for fun: 29

Author works
Needed for college: 3
Needed for fun: 43

She said there were also some Russian translated poetry but they were over in Dad's bookshelf so they didn't quite count. But still... *meep*
