i don't. i have an appointment this morning. 9:00. ugh! it's all part of my new plan to make sure i live forever. of course, i don't really expect to, but it's true that i take better care of my truck than i do of my ME. that's got to change.
well, it's been a few days since i last wrote. busy busy busy. thanksgiving was nice. we had mike's mum and dad (that's mike's mum over there ... getting a plate), mike's brother jim, and our new next door neighbor, gary. and of course dash and dottie (who got a little turkey, and was very happy about it).
...
IT'S ALL ABOUT THE FOOD. yes, this will be a day of eating. i can tell right now.
here's mr. turkey. if you want to know what a fatty he is, just roll your mouse over him (note:dash is almost as fat as mr. turkey!)
i've invited our new next door neighbor, gary over. otherwise, he'd be home alone. much better to eat (even with us) than to be alone with burger king. i hope he has a nice time. mike has to work this morning, so i must get a shower, so i can drive him. then i'm back for cooking, until i have to go pick up mike's mum and dad at the ferry building, where they'll be arriving after travelling from vacaville. haven't seen them in a while. should be nice.
ok. i have much to do, and since it might be entertaining to watch, i'll have the turkey cam on at around 9:30 or 10. watch me frantically clean up my living room, while simultaneously preparing delicious side dishes and desserts. i'm SO not hungry right now. hope that changes soon.

Mark Z. Danielewski: House of Leaves
i was intrigued, so i bought it. now i'm just confused. i'll let you know ...
... i gave it 4 stars because it was just so ODD .. i dunno if i liked it, or not. i gave it a good throw at the wall one night. that must mean something, right? (****)
Truman Capote: Other Voices, Other Rooms
i'll have to read it again. beautiful language. but a tad difficult. sort of turn of the screw in it's simple complexity. does that make sense. (*****)
Anthony Bourdain: Bone in the Throat
just started ...
Mark Haddon: The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time
suggested by dave over at www.funkypancake.com. i was intrigued. i still am. not very far into it, but it's really good so far. different. sweet. odd. yep, my kind of book! i'll let you know ...
