To whomever has the book: Read the last sentence on page 39 and tell me how realistic this is. I'm not being sarcastic either, this guys got my number. Apparently Dr. Urbino and I have the exact same habits following a meal involving asparagus.
Fabulous, El. I did get a snort out of that one, as promised by whoever this pompous Nicholas Shakespeare chap is who wrote my overlong "intro" that essentially gives away the entire story.
Last time I had asparagus I noticed the aftersmell reminded me of something but now I forgot what it was. The shower gel I currently have in my shower reminds me not at all of asparagus but, very unfortunately, of the great ape house at Lincoln Park zoo. I should probably just throw it out.
Whaaa??? I don't even have an intro! Bollocks, I love a good intro. Along those same lines, I thought I'd look up some discussion questions prematurely. And by prematurely I mean 50 pages till the end. And what do you know, they give away the ending in the very first question. I thought I was safe until at least #6 or #7! I now have 18 pages left which I hope to polish off on the train home tonight.
Fifty pages til the end? An intro? I don't even have the book yet! Ratsafrats. Hey El, thanks for changing the color of the dates. I can totally read them now!
You will indeed see me this weekend. I thought I'd pack a bag and make Hank and Gerts house a bit more crowded. I have to work until 6 on Friday, but I'm heading to Rolling Meadows after that.
Hey- no having fun without me! And I want to know of any inside jokes immediately after they happen. I'm still trying to figure out the opposite of a potato chip one.
You best get past page 39! I'm appointing myself book club regulator. When addressed publicly I would like to be referred to by my formal title, The Regulator. My sole purpose is to make certain that the books have been read by all current members. And I don't mean member in the trashy romance novel sense.

Oh, and PS my page 39 is not the same as your 39. I'm sure the intro threw that all off.
Will we see you this coming weekend, El? I'll bring you my intro!

I thought we explained that one: a potato chip is the opposite of everything. Um, I think.
Here I am commenting, when I REALLY ought to be reading!! Gaah!!
