Books I've Read Since We Got Here - Mom

The Entire Southern Vampire Series - Charlaine Harris (ummm.. I did it cause I love TRUE BLOOD - and even though I read the whole series this is one of the few occasions where I'll say the show is better. much.)
The Book Thief - Markus Zusak
The Graveyard Book - Neil Gaiman
Norwegian Wood - Haruki Murakami
Kafka on the Shore - Haruki Murakami
The Lollipop Shoes - Joanne Harris (don't bother)
The Witch of Portobello - Paulo Coelho (if you've read one...)
Footprints in the Sand - Sarah Challis (not fulfilling in any sense, read it out of obligation)
The Wasp Factory - Ian Banks
Gravity's Rainbow - Thomas Pynchon
Whit - Ian Banks
Hogfather - Terry Pratchett
A Confederacy of Dunces - John Kennedy Toole (really and truly I don't understand the hype)
Tales of Ordinary Madness - Charles Bukowski
We - Yevgeny Zamyatin (EXCELLENT - not only the book but the era in which it was written and it's journey since then add immense cultural value)
Moving Pictures - Terry Pratchett
Noon - Journal of the Short Poem 04
The Death of Bunny Munroe - Nick Cave (if you've read it you may laugh if I tell you I know a Bunny Monroe. alternatively, you may run in horror and choose never to associate with me again.)
The Luminous Life of Lilly Aphrodite - Beatrice Colin
Maus (the graphic novel) EXCELLENT
The Wind-up Bird Chronicle - Haruki Murakami
Lowboy - John Wray
King, Queen, Knave - Vladimir Nabokov

Theseus - Andre Gide
Thud - Terry Pratchett
The Alchemist - Paulo Coelho
Northanger Abbey - Jane Austen

Wishful Drinking - Carrie Fisher
A New Earth: Awakening to Your Life's Purpose - Eckhart Tolle
Diamond as Big as the Ritz & other stories - F Scott Fitzgerald
Scoop - Evelyn Waugh
The Good Soldier Svjek (EXCELLENT)
Informers - Bret Easton Ellis (not stellar in any sense. not a shocking BEE book either... I think maybe they turned this in to a rather mundane movie?)
Bernice Bobs Her Hair & other stories - F Scott Fitzgerald

Things I've Discovered I Miss - Mom

understanding the weather patterns
the ease of throwing my bag in a car and not having to carry my life on my back
knowing my way around - I've gotten lost on foot too many nights this week, and it's COLD
the ease of finding and picking up a newspaper or magazine
my friends
avocados
clothing sizing that has some sort of continuity and isn't a mixture of Euro, UK, and US - but without distinguishing between the various numbers!
labels I can understand
a familiar grocery store - one where I know where the spice is that I only need to buy once every three years
Crest toothpaste
My Pillows
Tapioca Pudding- homemade, from the red box
