If I can mention this here without some sort of violation.

I realized that I was in need of some... well, something.
So, I started reading The Path To Love by Deepak Chopra last night. I think I'll read a chapter a night and hope it somehow affects my life positively.

Reading "Matterhorn: A Novel of the Vietnam War" by Karl Marlantes.

Oh jeez. I slogged my way through all 80 gazillion pages of that series (enjoyably so) wondering how in the world he was going to wrap up the story.
And when I read the last few pages of the last book, I threw the book against the wall and yelled "aaahhhhh!!! nooooooooooo!!!! he can't do that!!!!".
I muttered to myself for days.

I love T.C. Boyle's short stories, perhaps the best short fiction writer we have today, IMO.
I'm going to the library to pick up Franzen's Freedom. I'm pretty excited as I was a big fan of The Corrections.
