— David Sedaris, When You Are Engulfed in Flames, “Buddy, Can You Spare a Tie?”, 2008, p. 62. Reading – The Bone Clocks by David Mitchell – The Strange Library by Haruki Murakami – Bitter Orange by Marshall Moore – Watch Me: A Memoir by Anjelica Huston – Ready Player One by Ernest Cline – Girl in a Band by Kim Gordon – Let’s Explore Diabetes with Owls by David Sedaris Music – Nine Inch Nails – Ladytron – Sonic Youth – Depeche Mode Watching – I’ve been watching more and more sports recently now that playoff season has arrived.
