I am not going to read Kite Runner. Sorry, lady at work that gave it to me, and the rest of the world that made it the most-read Goodreads book of 2007. Actually, not sorry. Life is too short to read Kite Runner

2. i hope your inmate writes back. i also hope he tells you what he's in for. i'm always curious about those things. i wonder if he was innocent. what if you launch a giant research project and set him free, like in that movie? i just hope he wasn't actually guilty. that would be scary.
3. i just finished atonement. i'm on my period (sorry, boys. it happens. every month, actually). i cried very very hard through the last pages. dan was rather perplexed, as i was inconsolable. (trust me, future readers. this does not give anything away. a menstruating woman's emotions tend to have no logic or rationality ascribed to them.) (lots of parentheses. hm.)
4. i just started "the abstinance teacher." it's okay. but i'll save this part for goodreads.
5. my dad used to sing boyband lyrics very loudly out the window of the car whenever he drove me somewhere. i kind of wish he did the robot walk. i hope dan does his full part of making our children squarely and dearly humiliated wherever we go. it's a father's duty. i think he'll be good at it. he has a tendency to walk me through subway stations holding my hands over my head screaming "RAISE YOUR HANDS IF YOU'RE IN LOVE!" but he dip-kisses me on the platform like he's about to leave for war, and we get lots of applause. so it all evens out.
appendix: this was a very long comment.

Oh man. I cannot imagine Atonement in that state of mind. So intense!
