The Book Club
Inner dialog:
I thought you weren’t going to write about them anymore because of last time when you mistakenly thought no one read your blog.
What? Oh, yeah I guess so, but it’s not like I’m writing anything bad.
But you didn’t write anything bad last time either and remember, you ended up sending Amanda that long whiny e-mail when you thought you would be ousted?
Yeah, but she sent me a lovely gift so that didn’t work out too badly now, did it? I love Amanda. But anyway, I just wanted to write about how much I’m enjoying the Book Club. We met last night and had some delicious food including something called “Man Salad” and got to see a lovely house. Oh, and we discussed the book and several possibilities for the next book. I had a really good time and I really like everyone.
OK, now you’re just sucking up.
Am not. Anyway, I do like the people and the books — we’re reading Nabokov next, about which there was much discussion and a pretty close vote. I still don’t think they read the blog, either; that was just a fluke. Although . . . now that I think of it, everytime I meet someone new in the group, I introduce myself and they say, “Oh, the blogger.” Last night I was accused of having a tape recorder in my pocket.
Silly readers. Don’t they know you use a digital recorder?

Hi Book Clubber!
I am reading your blog!! Actually I get a feed from Netvibes but am usually too lazy to comment - or have nothing to say./
Can you believe we are reading Nabokov? What happened to “Low Brow”? S’s choices were certainly a surprise to me.
I’m glad you are in the book club - especially since I don’t ever see you in the ‘hood. This one one of the best ones we have had - thanks to Julie!!! The Man Salad certainly added to the fun.

you’re not just angling for another gift, are you? because that would be sad.

NO! No I’m not. I’m still reeling from the last one.
