I'm trying very very hard to be patient for the NEXT book. As in 9, whenever Mads gets that written for all us crazy fans. ;P

I ate through Book 8 in like a day. Literally, it came in the mail on a Friday while I was at work, and I spent all that night and early morning Saturday just devouring the poor thing. It's kinda like my water bottles that always seem to have holes in them. :(

Now, I wouldn't actually rip pages from a book and eat it, I just read it really fast and couldn't stop reading. Likewise, I don't chew holes through my water bottles, I just drink so much water in a day that it feels like there's holes in my water bottles. I drink between 4-6 24oz bottles of water in a day. Usually 5. Sometimes I actually drink even more. I usually drink an entire 24 oz bottle on a bike ride, and then guzzle down another soon after getting in the door after.

Back in high school, both my sister and I were nicknamed "the fish" because we were both constantly seen guzzling down tons of water.

Of course, how that relates to my other high school nickname of speed-freak, I have no idea. I mean seriously, if you don't wanna get run over by a speed-walker trying to get from the top floor of a building on one end of campus all the way to the top floor of a building at the other end of campus, JUST MOVE! Easy nuff. Calling me a speed-freak... pfft. You never ever saw me late to class... nah, 5 minutes tops to take the longest trip between classes on that campus, and that was with dodging slow-arses. They gave us 8 minutes between classes as I recall.

Hmm... Gaby... yeah... I wonder what those kids who used to call ME a speed-freak woulda said about Gaby's bicycling.

Anyhoo... awesome for posting the old chapters up, can't wait to see new ones. ;)

Oh... and sorry for the awesome long tangent, it's just me trying to be patient, you know...
