I'm absolutely certain there is a god, and that he's a bastard. either that or i'm the victim of some kind of sick reality tv program.
If i've been awake in class the last month, it was a victory. Listening was a rare state indeed. That i should be concious exactly long enough to partake...

i had thought i was too jaded to fall for anyone.
then i met a girl who likes franny and zooey, good eats, and redwall books.

i'm reverting to cold boy stage. Groups of people make me sick. liiterally. thankfully, my ulcer has calmed down. Vegas on tuesday. Thats gonna be great.
I read The Diamond Age and was like "what the fuck was that?". The rest of the book was great, but the ending was just like horrible. Snow Crash's ending was really dissapointing.That's definetly why it's only my second favorite book. From what I read, Stephenson isn't great at ending books.
I'll write down those books you gave me and go to Powell's (I don't know if you know it, but it's about the size of a city block full of books) and I'm pretty sure with I'll be able to find most, if not all of those books.
