onto sparkling pavement

So, I finally got around to purchasing "Hot Water Music" by Bukowski. I'm laughing and making weird faces while I'm reading it. So much talk of farting, and making light of beating people up and murdering people. He even manages to make chauvinism lighthearted and amusing.
Has anyone else read it? What do you think?

I've read so many books lately. I'm averaging a book every two days. I don't mean to do this. I want to read slowly and take everything in. But I find myself reading at every possible opportunity I can. Waiting in line, stop lights, breaks at work, sitting on the toilet, eating, during commercials when I'm watching tv...it's just strange.

I've always liked to read. But over the last year I've been obsessed with always having a book with me. If I don't have something in my bag to read at any given time, I feel awkward.

What's the best advice you can give young writers?
Drink, fuck, smoke plenty of cigarettes.
lol.

I want to leave my job.
I'm going to work on my resume and shoot high. Lets see what happens.
