I'd like to start out by raising a rousing HUZZAH! to the wonderful people at Livejournal, who managed to resuscitate this enormous network after an unexpected power failure ... I can't believe it's up after only 24 hours. On a Friday night, no less. Kudos to you, should you ever read this...

In other news:

Jacques contemplates the nature of evil.

10:43 PM
It's raining.

RAINING! Yay!!

Of course, that means tomorrow will be slushy and not good for driving, but ... RAIN! I can take my umbrella to work! I won't have to wear sunglasses at lunchtime! Hey, the rhododendron outside the library has little icicles on it... Freezing rain! Cool!

(I'm allowed to say that because I don't drive)

...look, of course I don't know who this dude is... but because of the nose...

HE'S TOTALLY HOT!!!

*giggle-titter-giggle*

I see you have had the same reaction that Lilylarkin, Octaveleap, and I have had ... he's got about three lines of dialogue in one book but yet he's strangely addictive!

[ubiquitouspitt.livejournal.com]

Clever suggestion! Seeing as how I haven't read the books, though, I'd prefer to cite the nose...

*strokes it lovingly*

Octaveleap had mentioned something about starting a "Jacques is Hot" fan club ... I think it was in jest, though. ...?

[octaveleap.livejournal.com]

Well, it WAS in jest, but... hey, if we get followers... *giggles*

What's awesome is, your rendition of Jaques is almost EXACTLY how I always pictured him. The long face and nose, and how he makes that unibrow look so elegant. ...And I like the fact that he's wearing gloves, just like his sister does :-D

[twirlynoodle.livejournal.com]

Actually, this one wasn't ... supposed to be gloves... but it could be, I suppose.

It is a good thing he does not wear glasses. Otherwise... whoof.

What is WITH him?? Why is he so COOL?

[renthead006.livejournal.com]

I would so join the 'Jacques is Hot' club. Because, well, he is.

[octaveleap.livejournal.com]

Oh! It wasn't gloves, silly me. The shadow on his left hand confused me. Yeah, the right hand looks un-gloved.

So you dig glasses? *sniggle-hee*

Hmm.... I think part of why he's so alluring is the fact that he... well... his scene is kind of... cut short (I'm trying to avoid spoilers.) The cut-shortedness of it leaves you kind of... hungry for more, maybe?

And there's always that "picture" of him in the Unauthorized Autobiography... he looks quite handsome there.

I do have that too.. I should look at it again, I don't remember seeing it because I'm a dolt like that.

I can't wait for the next one to come out.. it's soon, isn't it? I heard about it somewhere.

I like being 18 and loving 'children's' books. =]

If September is early to you.

[twirlynoodle.livejournal.com]

Next what? Calendar? Book? Rare Edition? What's coming out in September?

[renthead006.livejournal.com]

Book.. sorry.. I'm really out of it lately.

Speaking of, if you saw the movie, what did you think?

[twirlynoodle.livejournal.com]

Quite simply: this (http://www.livejournal.com/users/twirlynoodle/7875.html).

[bananabasket.livejournal.com]

Well, nothing I know of for *sure* of course. I'm guessing the next book will come out in September, it's the month the last two have come out in. The calendar will probably come out in July as the last two calendars have.
