There’s got to be a point where I say enough. When will I reach that point? I guess it’s not today as I am sending that story right back out again.

I also think I would like to Misery Charles Yu, as I only started Interior Chinatown yesterday evening, I am almost done it, and then what am I supposed to do with my life? Re-read his other books again? And after I do that? Huh? HUH? HUHHHHH??!?!?!
Stay positive.

I did make it ten whole days in 2021 before starting to read a book about Nazis (although I read two books in 2021 prior to this one in which Nazis were mentioned). Here is my conclusion: Meghan, you read too many books that have Nazis in them.
I know. Stay positive.
Sigh.
is the number of short stories I have currently sent out looking for homes.
If you want to add science mumbo-jumbo into your movie, at least pronounce Cauchy correctly.
Props to her fake-learning quantum physics on her own though.
I did not finish Zoo Station.
Onto a world of new failures for 2021!
As if there had been time for more d‘s after that behemoth.
Hey — look over there!
Assuming I can read 200 or so pages this afternoon.
I decided, arbitrarily, in October, to read through the alphabet. There is so much noise in my head that whenever any coherent thought bursts its way through, I tend to do whatever it says (see, also cat ear hair clips).
Like many attempts, however, X stumped me. I don’t have much interest in X-men and most other books starting with X seem to be about vampires in outer space. There is an Edith Wharton collection that starts with X (Xingu), so why don’t I read that? 1. I have to find a cord to connect my Kobo to the computer and I’m too lazy to do that and 2. I have to spend today finishing up Z (Zoo Station, which is really Wir Kinder vom Bahnhof Zoo and only in a newer translation is Zoo Station) and the chances of me doing that rather than pissing the day away b staring vapidly at the grey weather outside is very low. Vanishingly. Epsilon low.
Now I have to decide how to list this. All books in alphabetical order? A canonical example for each letter? Keep reading and see.
Guess what I’m reading? I ask Geoff.
Without looking up from his video game and as monotonely as possible, Geoff: A book on Nazis.
Yup.
