Plans are made to get screwed up. jh Send a noteboard - 03/12/2010 10:17:58 PM
I've noticed that I never really follow my plan, but I can still make one and then forget about it :approve:

I'm reading "The Satanic Verses" by Salman Rushdie now (and I'm suprised by how good it is - I had some prejudice against him) and I'm going to finish that one before starting something else.


I didn't actually think all that much of the Satanic Verses; his Midnight's Children is a much better novel - I suggest you read it someday when you have time again.
