reading (Island of the Sequined Love Nun)

I just finished Christopher Moore's "Island of the Sequined Love Nun" which derien gave me for Christmas. Disbelief in this novel, like all Christopher Moore books, is suspended on high stilts of absurdity. The sharks of reality are kept at bay by reefs of plot contortions both cynical and sweet. I'm not sure I liked it as much as his "Lust Lizard", but it's definitely a fun read filled with plenty of Moore's zaniness. I will end up reading all of his books. They're just too fun to pass up.

I guess at some point I'm going to have to go back to reading that philosophy book.

Today has been a perfect day.

"Lava come down,
soft and hot.
You better luva me now,
or luva me not." --- Jimmy Buffet

I got up at the usual time, but instead of going to work as usual I had an appointment with the gastrologist. After the appointment I was forbidden from driving, operating machinery, or heavy lifting for the rest of the day. Oh, woe. Oh, woe. I weep. :)

So derien drove me home. We had a big late breakfast. Then we snuggled up in bed and read our books. With hot chocolate for me and a nice hot bath for her, life doesn't get much better.
