we've got obsessions

     Where did all the grace and redemption go?  I miss the amiable portrayals of living life recklessly through pages of novels like Anna Karenina and This Side of Paradise... of giving everything you have for happiness-- though it's not advisable.  I'm not the biggest fan of these 'A List' books and that 'Gossip Girl' show.  I find no entertainment value in watching self suffocated arrogance and, therefore, vote amscray modern representations of the noveau riche!  Replace these spoiled brats with paupers seeking vengeance against society with elegance, subtle disapproval, and lots of caviar.  Old school style with monocles and all.  Can somebody hand me a copy of Great Expectations?

What exactly is my point?  Nothing, actually.  
I just need to take a shower and go to Barnes and Noble to buy some good ol' Fitzgerald.  
Perhaps get better sleeping patterns while I'm at it.
