This is the second time I&#8217;ve just grabbed any old book off the library shelf of new fiction and came home with an entertaining story set in England. You know, I think I may start using British terms to explain things because I really like them for some reason. I love how they call an argument a row, or an apartment a flat. I also find it amusing, as well as impressive, how when I&#8217;m watching a police chase show featuring British cops, they are always so calm and matter of fact. And those accents. Well don&#8217;t get me started, but I think anyone with a British accent sounds about 50 times smarter than an American even if they aren&#8217;t. I know, I&#8217;m weird. Or perhaps a wanker? ;)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve had this $40 Borders gift certificate burning a hole in my pocket for over a month now, and finally got around to placing an order on their website yesterday.
