A Most Desultory Post
Overcast Monday morning. Overcast me. This post will be no more than just a bullet agenda.
1. The steamy cup of coffee has cooled down and I am not sure if I'll get a refill. Should I wait or just do away with it for good?
2. The last week of summer class will witness the glory, the literary erudition of the mighty The Master and Margarita.
3. Bookpuddle's reading of On Beauty spurs me on to get Zadie Smith's debut White Teeth.
4. Dylan and Mingus from The Fortress of Solitude take into scrawling their graffiti tags on the streets of Brooklyn. The vivid yet oppressive setting of the novel twitches my nerve as if something ominous will always hover over the lives of these kids. Good read.
5. Last, but not the least, I updated My Pictures section on the right-hand side-bar with photos from Thailand, China, Cambodia and Indonesia. Pictures from Taiwan and Malaysia are coming soon. Take a peek.
And I miss J.

I liked the note about missing "J"...
I am reading THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING BARBRA. ...It is a most intellectual read. I feel ready to return for my MA at any moment. Can one major in Babology?
It is so foggy --- it is even kind of a downer in our office today. No disco music --- just new age stuff which is making me sleepy.
I love your pictures! Thank you for sharing. I really want to travel to Asia. Can't wait to see the other pics.
Who's J? :-)
Anyway, love your pictures. I think you look A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E!!!
*smooches*
I find coffee much more enjoyable with a donut. Keeping in tune with your analogy, perhaps it isn't the coffee itself, but simply the coffeecup (the container).
As per your #3 comment, On Beauty was a real good read, but I have not seemed to have the time to adequately write about it yet.
I've never read White Teeth but have heard it is excellent.
The best to you!
