four books.

4. my favorite book. it's not even a book. it's a masterpiece. it was the only required reading i enjoyed (well, actually did) during school.



3. i read this book during the summer of 2008 and i still catch myself genuinely missing the characters in it to this day. i fell in love with james frey and i've read every novel he's written. i don't give a rat's ass if he embellished his story because its phenomenal and i hate oprah.



2. i bought this book over 3 years ago and still have yet to read it. its packed in my carry on for tomorrow's flight, which i just realized is the first flight i'll ever take totally alone : /



1. everyone (men & women) needs to read this book. it was given to me by my aunt after i got out of a... we'll say "weird" relationship. it changed my outlook and taught me lessons about love. i'm a better person for reading it.


on another note, big love left for a "field exercise" this morning and won't be home until the end of the month. i'm emotional and pouty. i'm wearing his pajamas and tearing up at the most ridiculous things (ie, his wallet on the desk, the mud from his boots in the doorway and the peanut butter spoon in the sink that reminded what our "goodbye" kiss tasted like this morning). i was never this much of mess when he left for the field before and i'm sure i'll be able to put a smile on and get my day started soon. it's just knowing that this f-ex (field exercise) is preparing him for a real deployment that's making this harder than usual.
