literary update

scarce few things to mention other than the books i've been reading lately...Amanda and Jason had borrowed me a couple: The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle (Haruki Murakami) and The Hawkline Monster (Richard Brautigan)...i recently finished those and last night went on a bit of a book-buying spree at Bookstar...it had been a very long time since i'd actually bought new books...i got: Martian Time-Slip (Philip K. Dick), The Soft Machine (William S. Burroughs), Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World (Haruki Murakami), and Revenge of the Lawn/The Abortion/So the Wind Won't Blow It All Away (Richard Brautigan)...the winners for the halloween costume contest were posted...some tool who's costume was some fake blood coming out of his neck got first place...AHEM...my fucking costume not only had blood coming out of me but a fucking knife handle sticking out of my chest!!! not THE easiest thing to just slap together...so it's like my costume had everything this tool's had and MORE...of course i didn't win a damned thing...i hate everybody!!!
