A Castle graphic novel

Marvel is going to put out a Castle graphic novel - at least partly by Brian Michael Bendis, no less.

Makes me a happy fan.

I wonder who will draw it.

J'ai fait mes devoirs...

Why does my French homework always take me so long to finish?

Maybe it's better not to answer that.

Wednesday...

• Picked up my weekly comics today, but despair of ever getting time to read them. I was sorely tempted by the Batgirl graphic novel, beause I like Stephanie Brown - but I spent too much today even without that. Not on comics; on bus tickets and pills at the pharmacy. Yeah, different parts of the budget, but it all comes out of the same empty pockets.
  
• More rain. Still, it wasn't heavy rain: it was rather nice for walking, though humid.
  
• French class at the Alliance Française was, as always, terrific. I keep making stupid mistakes: will I ever stop?
  
• Someone came to explain to us how we can take out books, magazines, TV shows and movies from the Alliance Française library. Very cool. They have audiobooks, too.
  
• Listening to French radio. Can anyone recommend a good local French station? Or a TV show, or channel, that's good to watch?
  
• Wrote the mailing comments for Apaplexy #225. Ill have to write the rest of the zine tomorrow, and/or Friday.
  
  

The hat on the cat... well, rather, the princess...

I'm not sure whether this news item about Princess Beatrice's hat makes me want to laugh or groan. What a wild and crazy world. $30,000 for a funny-looking hat: I can't even fit my brain around that.

Actually, the hat looks to me like a Doctor Who design. I wonder if Philip Treacy is a fan.
