It perks up my day that it perked up your day. My pleasure. I should do that more often (not often, necessarily, but it's a little silly that that was a first).
So I gave it to another friend the same day as I gave it to you and the other friend emailed today to say that he's 1/3 of the way through and very much enjoying it.
I read the book! If It was a bit too action-movie-y for my tastes, but 'twas easy to read and made for entertaining retelling to my recent travel companion. So, thanks again!
Yay! Thanks for reading! I obviously know what you mean about action-movie-y - not the sort of thing I usually read, but it was fun. The sequel was super-disappointing. Don't be tempted.
I'm currently reading the new Richard Powers novel and Americanah.
Where'd you travel? Somewhere fun? I'm just chillin' out at work. My semi-retirement job.
Huh. So as you can see I was up in the middle of the night for no good reason and when I found that video for you I watched the link a few times because it really is pretty catchy (I always knew it was catchy but probably hadn't listened to it in a few years) and then went back to sleep once I'd caught up on my work and I dreamed that I was at some Charlie Waller concert in a mall or something before he died and then some lady came around and told them to end the concert because they needed the space for the next people who had it booked so they gathered around for an unplugged encore and there were a bunch of loud little children that adults were trying to shush.

ReplyDeleteAnd it has a memorable shark scene.
I look forward to hearing what you think.

ReplyDeleteYou should move it up in the queue.
Happy Valentine's Day, which I guess it is on the east coast based on the time stamp on the blog, although we're not quite there yet where I am...

Holy cow! Fun!

DeleteCrazy how much that video influenced my dreams.
