Poison

I survived yet the third case of food poisoning in my life yesterday. This was definitely the worst of it. I spent my entire Saturday in bed with several trips to the bathroom. Once it got really late in the night I was feeling better and dreaming of the places I would have a meal at today. I'm eagerly looking forward to it. However, I did order myself a handful of books from Amazon that I'm pretty excited about!
Bad Behavior by Mary Gaitskill where the film Secretary got inspiration from.
Shopgirl by Steve Martin. I read this book while with my ex, who owns it. I thoroughly enjoyed it and wanted it for myself.
Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury. I read this book when I first met my ex, and it rocked my world on so many levels, as I've blogged about. But, yet again, I don't own my own copy. I can't wait to read it again!
Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov of which the film Lolita was also based. I watched the newer version of the film recently and find it incredibly interesting.
The Vagina Monologues by Eve Ensler. This is a book and film that I have yet to read/see. I have seen and read small parts of it and did see a performance of it at ASU last year. I personally love Ensler, she's quite amazing and maybe in a way I share her writing style. Maybe. Speaking of which, the performances at ASU are due to happen again very soon. And I'm sooooo going!!
And finally, Eat Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert. I'm very much excited to read that too.
This would be another one of those moments in my life where I just simply don't understand people that dislike reading.
