People ask why I love #EndersGame so damn much. My current answer is a deadpan, “It was published in 1985 and is on the NYT bestseller list in 2011. How ya like them apples?” Really though it’s just an amazing story. You should all read it. Otherwise I’m not sure we can be friends.

Less than 24 hours into vacation and I’ve already finished one #book. This bodes well for the rest of my week. I’m a nerd.

Ok I’m as excited about #pottermore as the next person but if my dash is going to be taken over by this for 7 whole days, I’m gonna be annoyed. Is it possible to mute hashtags/topics?

Basically, we media addicts sort of suck at endings. Writing them. Watching them. Being remotely satisfied by the best of them. Did they stick the landing? Who knows? We’re so compulsively sophisticated that we can’t let the damn gash scab over. There will always be a bereftness, a phantom limb that we reach to stroke like the pet log in Twin Peaks (quit halfway through season two).
