Books

I finished What is the What by Dave Eggers and damned if I didn't cry near the end. It just happened and was unexpected, considering that I thought there was some melodramatic writing at times.

So I'm reading another cheery book The Corner by David Simon. Hey, it's Baltimore, and I wanna know. I think this book is already more hopeful than Homicide and I'm finding it hard to do homework instead of reading. Oh damn, what a dilemma, right? I want to keep reading because this book deals with people who haven't already been murdered and still have a chance at turning things around. There are even pictures of these people! I feel personally invested, which hardly ever happens.

Or maybe I'm just being uber-sensitive to everything right now.

Yesterday was Valentine's Day and I made chicken taquitos with corn tortillas, as they should be made. It took the longest time to find freakin' corn torts!
Oh and the two things have nothing in common, it just kinda happened that way.
