Stuff

I've been reading a bunch of stuff lately. My bedside table/rug is dwindling down a bit. Just finished reading Coraline by Neil Gaiman. Before that I finished Running with Scissors. Both very easy to get through. I'm not really sure what qualities those books have that make it an "easy" read for me. Such as most Banana Yoshimoto (I still head to the Y aisle in bookstores in hopes that, finally, they translated another novel but am always disappointed that "they" have not) or Haruki Murakami or Kurt Vonnegut. Yet books by other novelists, whose books I know are sure to be good, its just a bit tougher to get through. Right now, that book is Sabina Murray's A Carnivore's Inquiry. And lately, just about ever remotely Pinoy work. I can't seem to get through all the poetry books I bought at that conference when I made a personal pledge to read more FilAm literature so that I could do my part and do more reviews.. But how can I possibly write even one review when I can't even complete one freaking book?Anyways, such is a dilemna of the privileged, no? Heh.

My body is a foreign object

What she said.

Ok, fine already, enough with the cryptic, its hard not to talk about it! I'm pregnant! 11 weeks today. Yay!

My body really does feel like an object totally foreign to me. Every little thing that I feel FEELS weird. I've lost my appetite for things I used to LOVE. I can't imagine eating a burger or steak without getting queasy. Anything fried or remotely oily grosses me out. I crave vegetables and fruits more than anything else. I can't imagine drinking coffee! Its so freaking weird! I'm constantly asking B, "what is wrong with me?!" like an idiot. Something I'll love one day, I'll not be able to stomach the next day. More when and if I'm not too lazy to continue...
