good morning friend,

mmm, right now it's wednesday morning. i am sitting in my room, drinking coffee and listening to nico sing about mirrors . . .

wednesday needs to be productive. i need to be productive. grocery store (am completely out of coffee), laundry, work out with k at 1:15, thesis thesis thesis, a little house cleaning . . . maybe (if i am super woman) a dance class. maybe.

we will see.

did you ever read franny and zooey? i finished it a few months ago but i was just thinking about it the other day . . . while reading it i often wondered what you would think of it . . .


"the cards are stacked (quite properly, i imagine) against all professional aesthetes, and no doubt we all deserve the dark, wordy, academic deaths we will all sooner or later die"

wow. that quote is thick with cynical truth....I haven't read 'franny and zooey'. I don't even know who it's by. Who's it by?

oh, it's jd salinger. you could read it in a day. there are a great many cynical, sarcastic, and satirical truths (can there be a satirical truth??). beyond the profound quotes i just love the feeling of being in 1950's new york. wearing gloves and stockings and smoking without remorse--it wasn't bad for you then . . .
