ok, so i am feeling exceptionally mean today.......no small task for the mean mamma...........just a day that such meanness should have been allowed to stay home in bed, or better.....in my closet looking at how organized it remains 2 days later...........i have les than 24 hours to fiish absalom,absalom........such a dreary tome.......i want to get back to a heartbreaking work of staggering genius, which was easier to read despite the tragic subject matter......turns out we own the book because i bought it for andrew for christmas........so much for shortterrm memory loss.............anyway, i also need to get the remaining book club books...the ones i do not own, like grham greene's the quiet american........so i can get ahead just in case i find something else i want to read whilst i should be reading the book club book.........so many books, too little time.......
