carved angel

to alleviate some of the pain i experienced from reading the two books i mentioned in the last post, i started reading rush limbaugh is a big fat idiot by al franken. it's hilarious, of course. however, i've had to use a bookmark that belonged to my mum to keep my place, which seems the height of irony. (i only have two bookmarks: one given to me by mum, and one that i took home with me after going through her stuff. i'd probably collect bookmarks, as i'm always reading multiple books at once, if shadow wasn't so cheap.)

anyway, when i was 11-12, mum used to actually listen to his show. and here i am, reading a book where the very title is mocking him, using one of her bookmarks. i'd call it sacrilege, but that would probably be blasphemous. it just feels wrong, somehow. (even more wrong than an otherwise intelligent, caring woman listening to rush limbaugh.) considering my reading material lately, i think i will buy a bookmark the next time i'm out. or just use a kleenex. whatever.
