Weekend Update

So I spent Friday night eating tiramisu in celebration of Luke's birthday. Then Saturday my mom came up and we had a fine Peruvian lunch with Carolyn and her crazy family before seeing Carolyn's crazy Havel show. If anyone other than Carolyn is reading this and is in New York, go see a Havel show. They're cheap and good. Just do it. And wear Nike. After the show we wandered aimlessly around Williamsburg until my mom left and then we sat aimlessly around our apartment. At about 11pm I started reading Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro and didn't stop until 5:30am when I was finished (which brings my count up to 72). I was so devastated by the end that I just stayed in the fetal position bear hugging the book for about 20 minutes until I finally fell asleep. It isn't perfect, but it is very powerful. All day Sunday I was unsettled by the book and the lack of sleep and so I never quite managed to motivate myself to get dressed. I had orange juice and chex mix for dinner, watched Manhattan and went to bed.
