Reading Hangover:

Is that possible?

Ever since Xmas day I have had my nose in the books Mom gave me.

America (The Book)- by the folks from the Daily Show. Finished it in one day. If you liked National Lampoon's Yearbook parody (and I am dating myself with that one), you will love this. Funny stuff.

and

Faithful- by Stewart O'Nan and Stephen King. Relive the year the Cubs should have had. I think only diehard baseball fans (and maybe only diehard Sox fans) will truly appreciate this. O'Nan tends to get into a little too much detail on midseason games while King provides color commentary that only a seasoned cynic could write. Being a Cub fan I can understand where he was coming from. Still, a good read- took me back to summer and that felt good.

Now my head hurts, and I have to go read the paper.
