Hoisted by my own retard
If you have a new enough iPod, Steve Jobs actually watches you sleep. Momentarily overcame my paranoia, enabled the Genius feature on iTunes. Fun to play with. Massive library, music hides there. VERY Big Brother, though. I'm violated and scared.
Loving the new book. What a brilliant writer, Lionel Shriver. Kevin's essays were GOOD, didn't you think? "My mother goes somewhere else..." I cannot wait for whatever shock is at the end, I've overhyped it to myself.
Good day today despite the Saints win, it seemed to fly by. Not a normal Monday. I thought about a haircut but it's been so hit or miss at the barber lately I didn't want to spoil the day by testing it, will try tomorrow. Taxes I mentioned last week still not done either, the 1040EZ I get, but the 1099 intimidates me. Do I have to report stock market earnings if they are less than a certain dollar amount and they are reinvested? I don't know the answer to that.

Finished the book. I did guess about Franklin and Celia, but not too far back before she started telegraphing it. So, was he really born bad or did his mother make him that way? Hmmm. So twisted! I tried a three letter word dealie like Kevin did, what do you think:
Eva had wet sex. Son was bad egg. Ate eye out. Say bye. The end.
They're making the movie, Eva is Tilda Swinton (good casting!) and Franklin is John C. Reilly (classic dumb oaf guy).

What are you talking about big brother watching? Now you have me paranoid!
How's the book coming along?

I didn't see your comment when you posted mine. They're making a movie! I hope they don't mess up the book. Did you like it? Did you love the scene where she described how he killed his sister and father?
I got three John Lutz books to read on the kindle and the free book Serial that seems to be interesting. Look up Serial by Jack Kilborn and Blake Crouch.
You never sent me your address! Are you afraid of me or do you not want my books? You can tell me.

The big brother thing... I avoided it for so long, hesitant to send all my info to Apple. I guess it's fine, that's just the way it functions. Just paranoia.
Right?
I did like that scene in the book, I definitely knew he was going to kill them both but wasn't sure how. I think when Eva looked at him through the police car window and he was searching her face, he was trying to see if she already knew about the family. What do you think that was?
I will get Serial and I'm sending my address now. Don't send all 27 books, that's too much!
I bought the Blackberry 9700 yesterday, ordered it through the website and should receive the phone on Tuesday. I like the iPhone but I didn't want to switch from T-mobile (best customer service ever!) and I didn't want to hassle with an unlocked phone and how well would it work with t-mobile, etc. For me, the 9700 should be good. I can't wait to play with it! That's what she said. The Office kind of sucks now, doesn't it? Season two is the BEST! They can never live up to that again.
