So, I started reading Chuck Palahnuik's Haunted and dry heaved several times while reading the end of the first chapter (Gutless' story -- everything up until then is fine). If I had eaten before it, I am sure I would have gotten sick. It still seems like a interesting book and I am going to read further, but I'm just putting my experience out there for those who might be interested in reading it.
I tried to buy The Artist's Way (Julia Cameron) today, but it wasn't in stock. Apparently, there computers said there was three, but there was none. I'm disappointed.
I wrote a but yesterday and finished Parable of the Talents (Octavia Butler). It was a hard read, but hopeful and very very good.
I'm also reading a anthology called The Mammoth Book of Best New Erotica edited by Maxim Jakubowsky. The stories I've read so far have been hot, well-written, and thought-provoking. There are some things I've read that I wouldn't be adverse to trying.
I cried today for no particular reason, but it was bad timing. I don't know why I cried exactly, but I whittled it down to fear. That's the number one reason I cry. One of the only reasons I cry. I'm nervous and I don't know. I've been quite sensitive lately.
