This week I've read Heartburn by Nora Ephron. Eh. And Last Chance Saloon by um, some Irish chick whose books I've enjoyed....crap. Forgot. Next to my bed, I have been alternating between Bushwhacked by Molly Ivins (heehee) and a collection of short stories written by Irish chicks. Last night I was up with Chloe most of the night (she's had a heinous fever of 104.5 and I don't like her out of my sight), so I finally read Running With Scissors. I liked it, found it humorously horrible....but I still like Sedaris better. I think I'll look into Dry and Sellevision though, I'll probably like them, too. I also read That Yellow Bastard this morning over a cup of tea and a bagel. The last two weeks, I've re-read That Yellow Bastard, Big Fat Kill, A Dame to Kill For, and the Marv one....blanking on the title.

Next up: The Secret History, On the Road, Mrs. Dalloway (would make it the third time this year...I'm currently craving it viciously), collection of short stories by American women, The Kite Runner (book group selection), Sometimes a Great Notion, and Main Street.
