i heart neil gaiman

recently, neil gaiman went on a US book tour. i got very excited when i learned about it. moments later, i got very sad because i realized i would be at work while he made his stop in chicago. then i started concocting a scheme to drive 6 hours to minneapolis in order to see him a week later. then i realized that was silly and settled back in to my incredibly uneventful life. but then i found out that his readings from the tour are available on his website. you can hear the whole book there.

i liked it very much. but i'm a sucker for neil gaiman. here's a trailer for it. it makes it sound all spooky, but it's really not.
