Have you seen American Gods? Cause if you haven't, boy howdy, do you. It's based on a great book by Neil Gaiman, my favorite author. He started out with an illustrious biography on Duran Duran, then went into comics - winning major awards, and also novels.
American Gods is great book contemplating what happens to the Gods brought to a new land long after the attention is taken by something new and shiny. It is brilliant storytelling, giving us a glimpse of the beliefs of others, actual legends and mythologies, as well as inventing new ones. Many of his other works have already been turned into movies, radio plays and vice versa. You may have heard of them:
Coraline:
Neverwhere:

So many great stories! So many fantastic adaptations. And the casting for this show is so good! Ian McShane, Pablo Schrieber, Corbin Bernsen, CRISPIN FUCKING GLOVER!!! If you want a little time away from the everyday crap, I suggest you get some STARZ and enjoy the ride.
Today I ate: smoothie, 2 pudding cups, 2 apples, grapefruit, Gardein "Fish" Fillets, shrimp
Today I bought: Some derby stickers, a ring, a pair of earrings
I think I have Starz. I need to check it out when I get home. What do your earrings look like?
