I draw pretty!
If anyone is interested in taking me up on this, I think the results could be funny. C'mon, it'll be awful.
1. Comment here and I'll pick one of your LJ interests and draw a picture using the mighty MS Paint.
2. You have no say in what I draw for you, or in how bad it will be!
3. Put this in your journal along with the pictures people drew for you.
If you want, I can even make it icon sized.
Obligatory visit/meal with family today, conversation included discussion of the movies Catwoman and Memoirs of a Geisha, which led to Sayonara and The Hawaiians. My brother wanted anchovies on the pizza, and oddly enough, I had the same inclination.
After Full Dark House, I have The Count of Monte Cristo. No, really -- I haven't read it before. Like Robinson Crusoe, it's one that I simply haven't read. I am trying to put together a list of necessary-to-have-read books. Dumas, Defoe... if I do it alphabetically, I can avoid Tolstoy for a while.
Suggest one? I'll tell you if I've read it.

Memiors of a Geisha was such a good movie. Have you also read the book?
And I third the Austen recommendation. Anything by Jane Austen is worth reading, as well as The Great Gatsby. Brave New World by Aldous Huxley is good too.

MofG, like DaVinci Code, is one of those books on the "everyone tells me it's good" list. I'll end up reading them once everyone has forgot about them; I tend to do that! If you liked Memoires, you might like Tokaido Road, set in an earlier time period but also in JP, about a samurai's daughter. It grew on me & I found myself enjoying her adventures (and romance).
