Weekend Recap
Saturday I met one of my former co-workers from UCF in the city. It was a nice day. We went to Battery Park, Jacques Torres, some French restaurant and then we went to see Jay Johnson : the Two and Only. It was pretty good.
On Sunday, I went to brunch club. It was at an Italian Restaurant in Murray Hill. It was a good restaurant but I don't like what I ordered. It as a lousy rainy day and only half of the people who were supposed to come showed up. That always irks me a little. When I was walking around after the meal, I slipped on a manhole cover and fell in the street. I skinned my knee and it's black and blue now. Plus it was pretty embarrassing to fall. Rubber bottom shoes and metal don't mix..live and learn.
I finished "N is for Noose". It was pretty good. I didn't know who the killer was until the end. So, it was pretty good. Now I'm taking a break from the alphabet murders and I'ved started Marley & Me: Life and Love with the World's Worst Dog. I'm only on the first few pages. I still can't put down the DS playing Animal Crossing. I'll use my bum knee for an excuse.

The whole time I was reading this book I had to keep reminding myself that it took place in the late 40's. I was born after the civil rights movement and it is really hard for me to grasp that there was so much racism in the south even aft...
If I could give this book 2 1/2 stars I would. I think the author did a good job of developing the characters and the plot, I just hated them all. I found the story to be very disturbing. The description on the jacket said it was suppose...
It was a cute story about a woman who couldn't get her family or her boyfriend to listen to her so she ends up talking to her dog all the time and he answers back. It took me like 40 pages or so to start to like the story but it was a nice...
I don't remember why I picked up this book. I think I saw it in the "approval matrix" for New York Magazine as being good. It didn't really knock my socks off. There were parts of it that were funny but overall I just found it ...
