It was more of a question could you get an Anais Nin book called Delta of Venus at your library?? At its height my book collection was near over 400+ I think, the way I feel about books if I spend the money on them and I lend it to a friend or family and they read it then I got my monies worth. Besides with books you can read and reread them, its one of the few vices that you can do that besides something like movies or music.

Drag me to bed to get some sleep first 5 am is when I get up to get ready for work, and past 2 nights Burner has kept me up past midnight. As for book, just look around. I know of Anais Nin for 2 reasons, Cape fear and Jewel. In Cape Fear, Robert DeNiro,sp??, talked about a book called the Tropic of Cancer. I did read this like 10 years ago or there about maybe I need to reread it and see if it makes more sense this time through. The other reference to Anais Nin is in Jewel's first music cd. She has a song that goes something like this, Henery Miller and Anais Nin and maybe we will stay together in the end. Then just use the web Anias was bi, she was involved with Henery and June, I think that his wife's name is. And it was Burner that reminded me of Nin so just keep your eyes and ears peeled and who knows what other references to stuff you might see.

How is it going for y'all? Should be make this a two month read since it is over 700 pages?
Let me know.
Fury
Yeah, but you just said you like it long and thick.
Haven't had a chance to find it yet.

I like books long and thick, yes and in multiplicities.
Cocks I like thick and I'm pretty sure in multiplicities but long, nope, not so much. (Though I've never actually tried one.)
Now seriously does the length of this book 700 plus pages present a problem for everyone over a month? Let me know y'all!

No Fury its simple means I don't want to drag ass on this book for 2 months if you did not finish in the 30 or so days then just take a few into next month to try and finish.
Btw I am just shy of 400 atm so I should have it done by thrusday depending on how much I read.
