YET IN MY EXPERIENCE, WHEN LEFT TO THEIR OWN DEVICES PEOPLE WILL GET UP TO ONE OF TWO THINGS: NOTHING MUCH, AND NO GOOD.

Finished reading We need to talk about Kevin this afternoon. Truly disturbing book, extremely readable. I highly recommend it. Anyway, reading The accidental by Ali Smith now; bought that book, and Zoë Heller's Notes on a scandal, yesterday. Ali Smith actually lives in Cambridge; would be nice walking into her. Anyway, need to go do something productive now, like getting out of bed and get my Mars bar, so see ya, wouldn't wanna be ya!
