Hi Looooong time lurker! I've been obsessed with ASOIAF for far too long to be healthy. In fact, this sort of feels like an AA meeting post! Despite the fact that I'm a bit of a technophobe, the posts on this site have been so fantastic that I JUST signed up a week or 2 ago 'cuz everyone else was having so much fun, I wanted to join the cool kids. Live in Canada, have been married to the best husband in the world for 14 years this Dec. 21 (yes, the darkest day of the year) and we currently have one alaskan malamute. I have reread the 4 books way to many times to admit it here, and am just finishing off AFFC again. It's hard being this obsessed and waiting for ADWD. Good thing there's a whole new tv series coming out to focus my fixation on. (My friends who are truly SF readers and gamers think my one area of SF obsession is hilarious, and have just bought me the board game). I am just grateful there's an entire site for people who are just as committed to this level of scrutiny and fanaticism as I am. Do I get my chip now? :blushing:
