Further Tales from the Reading List: Welcome to the Monkey House
So I feel kind of bad about this, because most all of the other stories in his book are really enjoyable, but I just have to vent on this one.
Ok, never mind. Apparently loads of people have issues with Vonnegut. Sadly this does not include my teacher or anyone in my class. In fact he had us defend the author from claims of sexism/misogyny, and my group had no difficulty. I can see where they're coming from, but it's still tough to ignore it all.

Things to be happy about today:
- A complete stranger complemented my coat in a sweet way
- It's almost warm enough not to need my giant, but awesome, coat
- New Adventure Comics and Invincible Iron Man this week
- New Episode of Atop the Fourth Wall
- Thee tests on Friday, only one of which I am even vaguely prepared for
- Posting on this journal and looking up comics for the week shows how much progress I'm going to make on studying today. I am doomed. *DOOMED.*
