Alias Grace

I am reading Alias Grace by Margaret Atwood. I read it before bed, as I have every other book I've ever read. But this one effects me

I love Atwood. I'd have a crush on her if I was into chicks. Interesting dream though, I don't think I've ever had a book I was reading set a scene for one of my dreams before. Dreams are always so fucked up sometimes. Did I tell you about the one where my kindergarted teacher came to my house having to use the reastroom and then split in half on our front porch?

I went to buy that one Cunt book, but they didn't have any in stock. It was amusing asking the help desk guy about it though:

Me:"I'm looking for a book by Inga Muscio called Cunt"
Him:...."Called what?"
Me: "Cunt *smiles sweetly*"

I'll go get it from another store later. I ended up buying "The Creation of Patriarchy" and "Fast Food Nation" instead. Why do I always end up buying books that aren't on my "to-read" list?

Lol, I did that too! I got Alias Grace because they were sold out of Cunt. It was fun asking for it, though.

I've never dreamt about a book either...certainly not had one cause recurring nightmares. It's not even a scary book.

You both have said you'd be Atwood's lesbian girl if you were lesbian.

Superficial things like appearance shouldn't matter all that much in a meaningful relationship, though. Right? :P

She's a wonderful writter and I just love her for being one. So many great conversaions one could have with her. There are just so many good things I could say.

Besides, we're not lesbians. So, in the grand scheme of things, it really doesn't matter now does it?
