The Namesake, The Book

On a leap of blind faith, I’ll be purchasing The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri today @ a local bookstore as recommended by Atish. I’ve been itching for something to read during my lunch breaks (I love, and honestly need, to decompress in solitude in the middle of the day), so our “Hey you read this” talk came @ a good time.
The Namesake was also adapted into a movie this year, which I absolutely cannot link to in fears that I would happen upon a spoiler or two. LOL, who am I kidding. The trailer is here – IMDB entry is here too. I’ll definitely check it out when I finish the book. Maybe we can read it all @ the same time and then go out to a movie and buy some hot dogs and some nachos and a huge fizzy sugary thing. Or you know, rent it. Hee hee.
I think Freakonomics is next… Jacqui LOVED it… so logically… I will too. Don’t believe me? Let’s break it down with conditional reasoning:
If Jacqui loves Freakonomics,
and Herschell loves all things Jacqui loves,
____________________________________________
∴ Herschell loves Freaknomics
Now that I think about it, I don’t think this applies to underwear. Jacqui likes lace and tall sexy f-me boots WAAAYYY too much. Wait… now that I think about it MORE… I think it still applies. I just don’t want to wear it. Yeah. ROFL.

I’d prefer if you didn’t wear f-me boots, too.
