Random thoughts Stray memories

The mobile bookfair near my office has probably made a fortune off me alone. If my life were a movie script, today would have been:

Cue Monday blues and woman passing by bookfair on her lunchbreak.
Close up on the resigned look on her face as she pretended to herself that she was merely browsing.
Zoom in on titles of books she bought: Susan Sontag's In America (always a sucker for books which win awards eh?); Michael Lewis' The New New Thing (also a sucker for Silicon Valley stories); and Allan Gurganus' Plays Well with Others (on New York and AIDS pandemic).

I seriously think I may have to take leave to read all my books.
