like at this point i am very strong in my opinion that wolf hall is the best of the trilogy By Far and tmatl is a little over-written but the detail is so good and when this shit pops it's just. sound of me smearing across the pavement.

this thing is enormous and i have almost 200pgs to go. fortunately i cannot read more than probably 10pgs hardcopy at a time and this is what will keep me sane.

What would *your* book smell like if you engaged in a mega weirdo scented pages promotional campaign?

sock test: success. i will be honest with you. these are unbelievably comfy cozy warm. the only way they could be better is if i'd made the toes slightly longer bc i have really long toes but i will remember that for next time.

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing?
2? Questions
I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up.
Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?
