Fear and Loathing

Posted by on January 6, 2006

I just finished reading Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas by Hunter S. Thompson. The book was utterly amazing. It’s both a very difficult read, and a piece of brain candy at the same time. The book amounts to only 200 pages, but at times the material must be read over and over simply to comprehend it. I can’t really describe it (and do it justice) though. Now I haven’t seen the movie, so I don’t know how faithful it is to the book, but I’ll be watching that as soon as I can.

In other news, “I’ve got blisters on my fingers!” from learning to play some Elliott Smith songs today. I think I almost have Miss Misery down pat, and I’m learning Say Yes.

Finally, Paige and I went on a run today. I was exhausted (mostly because I ran yesterday as well), and didn’t make it as far as I would like. I’m a little sore from all the working-out I did yesterday too. Hopefully that will subside after I get some sleep.
