The Road

I forgot i posted just a while back about randy pausch and not whining and what not. oops. haha

anyway, i am back in a don't take shit for granted phase, thanks to this book


The Road - Cormac McCarthy


Makes you kind of appreciate shit like... i dunno food. ...

i guess in a really shallow way... as in during the time you spend reading the book... i wasn't exactly thinking of africans when i had my lunch today.

Not quite an Angela's Ashes level good book but very good. So good it's a part of Oprah's Boook Club. So good I spend 5 hours today at borders and read it from cover to cover. I kept telling myself, 5 more pages and I'll stop, over and over again. Much like my daily alarm clock 'snooze' button battle.

And i have 2 exams on saturday... FOOOOOCK! i'm so behind.

what am i doing blogging?

This is a new low for me... this isn't even a hard class either.

and my darned prof keeps bugging me to finish my summer resarch arggh.

anyway, nothing really exciting new to add... except that i've recently become a big fan of the sport of Pole Vaulting.

... oh yeah, iz FRIGGIN COLD!!! (not complaining, just statin facts)

That's on my to-read list, but unlike you, I have some freakin' self control and can wait until after finals. I also have money to buy books so I don't have to read them at the bookstore.

Ah, don't know how I missed that... so obvious.

Just as long as you don't take the books into the bathroom.

With a review like that, I'm going out to buy this book right now.

I still need to spend $4 more to qualify for free shipping from Amazon though :(
