I'm going to eat Chairman Mao

My professor and I had a long talk last night. the good news is that we both agree that I'm talented. I have a unique way of seeing the world. I express myself well. I've listened to the voice inside of me - this is good. I told him what I think I'm really writing about, and he's very intrigued. We're going to keep in touch during his sabbatical

ehm, you are becoming someone I really, really admire. That's really saying something. To say I actually admire someone is pretty rare. I don't know whether I am more in awe of you and your thoughts or my reaction to them. This is awesome. :D

I'm thinking of taking on The Fountainhead finally. And Love in the time of Cholera. Perhaps we should get together for coffee after the new year and compare reading lists.
I would like to read more of your stuff sometime.

sure thing. I'll have 11yo until after Christmas, then my days and nights are free. Just don't turn into one of those Ayn Rand nutcases, ok?

Just reading it b/c of the cultural references to it.
Should have done it years ago, but the cult put me off.

ok then. If I see you jumoing up and down on a couch in a year, I'll have to bop you on the head. I suppose I *should* read it, but there are so many books in that category I don't feel any particular urge yet.
