Just another Sunday spent reading and smoking and sleeping and grinning
like an idiot at the sun shining through the pine needles outside my
window. Not much to document. My big plans for the remainer of the
day - another assault on Underworld by Don deLillo, because
I accidentally rediscovered it while strip-mining my bedroom looking
for something, and I don't have anything else new to read.
So I'll just leave you with this special holiday treat forwarded on to
me by my friend Saul:
