The play that I'm assistant directing opens in less than two weeks. It's been an occasionally rewarding, occasionally frustrating experience. Perhaps I shall do a greater evaluation after some time has passed. At this moment, I'm far too

Finally, I was at a used bookstore the other day and they had placed Tom Robbins in the classics section. Don't ask me why. But this gives you leave to read Half Asleep in Frog Pajamas as well as Fierce Invalids Home From Hot Climates, my two favorites (because they're the most linguistically decadent and self-congratulatory, but what can you do...)...
Thus ends my diatribe. :) I haven't talked to you in a million years, but instead of a "how's it going?" you get a book rant. :) Oh, incidentally, this is Elizabeth Arlotti (don't fall off your chair!!)...I've been out of the country for a few years and everyone tells me that internet searching is the thing to do to reconnect with people. I personally think it's kind of creepy, but whatever. :) anyway, I was using my friend (she is winninghamster, notI) livejournal login to look around and I randomly found you. So, there you have it--a soapbox worth of classical literature opinions and a long lost hello. :)
Oh, one last bit--if you love GGM, try Louis de Berniere's magical realism trilogy...one's called Senor Vivo and the Cocoa Lord, one The Troubling Offspring of Cardinal Guzman, and I don't remember the third. It's heretical, but I like de Berniere much more than GGM.
