finshed Beloved last night...i thought it was good and very well written (despite Jacques' claims that she(Toni Morrison)'s a joke-writer...) having finished everything that i *had* to finish early, i went to bed early (a little after 11)...i took some Ny-Quil 'cuz my nose was mildly stuffy...i was barely able to wake up this morning...i was fucking dead the first few hours of the day...i guess the medicine was still being effective over 9 hours later...after class i checked to see how much money i had in the bank (aprox. $44) and went to Consignment to pay off part of ($40) the bass i have on layaway...the 30 days of layaway end the 11th...i hope i can get it out in time...$130 is left...then i went to Martin Music out in Cordova 'cuz they're having this contest where 6 ppl or so get drawn to throw a guitar and the person who can throw it the farthest wins a guitar...i wrote my name on some card and hopefully i'll win end up winning (though doubtfully...) my main problem now is i have to be there monday at 1 and i have class then...we're just doing group presentations and my group's is on wed. so maybe i can get out of it for my slim chance at a free guitar...then i came home and i've just been sitting here and i watched that show that i always watch like the little nerd that i am...

you never found out because it hasn't...yet...we give the presentation or whatever next wednesday...we haven't met or discussed in months though we just had a brief discussion after class today (as well as a few emails that didn't say anything over the weekend) and are meeting at the library tomorrow at like 1 or so...and we're only doing it on Naked Lunch (of course) so...i dunno...

as for Toni Morrison, while i doubt she'll ever be one of my very favorites, i did like Beloved a lot...though the middle of the first half did drag a bit...but once everything starts snowballing together it starts to rule...and there's lots of very powerful, graphic details throughout, which is something i find to be quite ace...i dunno...i've never even heard of the other person you were talking about...that's all i can think of to say for now...
