Sobre mimHello, my name is Luxx. Sometimes.

I'm a big nerd, living the life I've always dreamed of. My partner is the love of my life, I have a job I adore, a monster of a toddler whose smiles can right all wrongs, and a newborn who is king of all wild things. I go to bed happy every night. It's a great feeling.



"I wish you joy o'th' worm" - Shakespeare's Antony and Cleopatra, 5.2.270.

"The world must be peopled!" - Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing

"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife." - Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice.

"Everybody goes down well with beer." - "A Little Priest" from Sweeney Todd.

"That a man who has sons brings up chickens for his own table ... whereas daughters are chickens brought up for the tables of other men." - Samuel Richardson, Clarissa (77).

"I like my coffee black, just like my metal." - MSI "Shut Me Up"

"Growing up leads to growing old and then to dying/And dying to me don't sound like all that much fun." - John Cougar Mellencamp "Authority Song"

Sobre a minha bibliotecaThe tags I use to organize my catalog reflect the actual organization of my books, which currently take up about 18 feet of my living room wall. Many of my current books come from being a lit student for the 5.5 years, and still more come from my obsessive desire to collect and keep. I enjoy collecting several editions of the same text (for example, the complete works of Shakespeare and Poe), and am a sucker for "pretty" publications. I'm more likely to purchase books than ever set foot in a public library, although I've spent my fair share of time in college libraries. In the end, I guess my library is a combined manifestation of my OCD and personal interests ... but I like it that way.

Of course, I'm not the only reader in the house. Here's the rest of the crew:
