(no subject)

Note to self: Do not watch heartwarming family movies in front of other people. Endless sniffles and bawling over things like Finding Neverland (Can I claim I'm hard-wired to find dying of tuberculosis tearjerking? I blame La Boheme.) would really ruin my image. Good thing nobody knows I do stuff like that, eh?

Also went shopping on teh intarweb today -- picked up a copy of HP 2 and 3 in the language I can't read while I was also (finally) ordering the last volume and the backstory volume of the ybp thing that I read. I would have bought some PoT CDs while I was there, ordering in foreign, but there were too many options. There were five screens of PoT audio CDs. That's too many to sift through without a for dummies guide to them.

Now if I can just get my ass together and order shit from regular amazon.com ... does anyone have any good, historical (politics is good) biographies for my grandmother, who adored the damn Alexander Hamilton (by Chernow) that I got her for xmas but who is now done with that and in dire need of something else to read? She likes biographies and despises fiction. Suggestions welcome.
