I am lovin’ Sex, Drugs, and Cocoa Puffs by Chuck Klosterman.
[A native of this area. A possible book for the spring of '09, I do believe...]
… Are we all screwed up into thinking that the love we see on tv & in the movies can happen in real life? Do we have those notions, or even small parts of them, in our melons somewhere? Are we all in love with fake love?
> That’s what Chuck asks (and answers on his own behalf) in the first chapter. I find him amusing, whether I agree or not. It’s intriguing. His first paragrah states that no woman will ever satisfy him & he’ll never satisfy a woman either. Once one gets over that (fully appreciates/understands it), I suppose, love & relationships aren’t all that complicated. Who is ever really going to know me for me? Um, only me. It becomes more about enjoying each other’s company, and less about, say, trying to be the “perfect ___”? I forsee some problems with this idea; however, I like it’s perspective on love/relationships.
- There’s more to that chapter I have roaming around in my head, but I am rather pooped out. {Tune in tomorrow when I try to blog something as equally odd and exciting. Until then, buckle up and eat an apple.}

Hmmm sounds interesting. Might hafta check into that.
:/
Let me know how the rest of the book goes, it sounds interesting.
Here’s me, the broken record, it does sound interesting. Its crazy that he’s from North Dakota. No offense, but the state isn’t really known for producing literary geniuses. (Aside from us of course!)
I think, per capita, we’re probably doing alright. Someone should do the math on that… for every 500,000 people, there should be ___ famous writers/authors/poets…
Chuck Klosterman.
Tom Brokaw (or is he from SD?).
Louise Erdrich. (She’s from Wahpeton…)
