I have no idea who WillGraysonWillGrayson is, but now I feel compelled to find out!
I wanted to tell you that I've got your back with the Gas station job, Jon. I worked at and later ran one for the better part of six years and while it totally sucked, it was also, at times a hilarious and fun place to work. I actually miss it. And yes, people do disgusting things like buy beer in the am. They also scavenge in the ashtrays for cigarettes long enough for them to smoke a few puffs off of.
Wait till you have to clean up a 40 that someone drops and explodes all over the floor. 2 minutes before your shift ends.
You'll get to it when you get to it. I'm embarrassed to say I've never read John Greene. I know I need to. I even have An Abundance of Katherine's on my bookshelf. Maybe I'll read it next! But when I get to it.
Woah. Wait. You mean you have Will Grayson Will Grayson and you HAVEN'T DROPPED ALL OTHER THINGS IN YOUR LIFE TO READ IT?
ReplyDeleteSorry I was shouting, but IRL, I was totally shouting.
I'm jealous. I don't have WGWG. If I did, I might have to abandon my kids and all other responsibilities until it is finished.

See? Stories galore!
I hear ya! I have so many good books waiting for me, and I've been too busy to start any of them. Hope we both have plenty of reading time soon!

I just don't sleep more than five hours a day. It's amazing how much reading you can do with 19 hours available.
ReplyDeleteKELLY: Some of my column readers didn't like the math parts of ABUNDANCE...just kind of skim those, and it really doesn't matter.
I heard it is fabulous from my fabulous librarian friend.
ReplyDeleteI feel for you.
I haven't been able to get into it, honestly... But, in my own defense, I've been really busy.
