They lay there for a few seconds, in the dark, in the future, listening to the fabulous clockwork of their hearts and lungs, and loving each other.

He could not shake the feeling - reportedly common among ghosts - that it was not he but those he haunted whose lives were devoid of matter, sense, future.

He had no idea of how long his life would one day seem to have gone on; how daily present the absence of love would come to feel.

Must Read: Kavalier & Clay
Must Read: The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay #books
Recently, I have been listening to “The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay” by Michael Chabon, as I drive back and forth to the studio. If you love comics and New York, you really must read or listen to it. And, you needn’t love comics to appreciate this WWII era story of two young men, finding their way amidst the backdrop of pre-war NYC.
I am only 1/3 of the way through it and it is…

1. All I want to do is eat potato chips. WHY?!
2. I slept one hour last night.
3. After a three day hiatus, due to all the feels, I returned to The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay and finisher it.
4. I'm not ready to start on The Fault In Our Stars yet, but I don't know what to read now.
5. i just got off the phone with one of the doctors for my surgery and they said if we don't take care of the payment by 4 today they're canceling my surgery.
6. I seriously doubt at this point that my parents are going to have me get this surgery. I've stayed home for nothing.
7. I can't take this anymore.
8. Right now the world is Britta; It's the worst.
9. Someone should make The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay into a movie and I should play Rosa Saks.
10. My pinky nails are really super long right now. They're gonna break. :(

The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay, Michael Chabon-
First- “In later years, holding forth to an interviewer or to an audience of aging fans at a comic book convention, Sam Clay liked to declare, apropos of his and Joe Kavalier's greatest creation, that back when he was a boy, sealed and hog-tied inside the airtight vessel known as Brooklyn, New York, he had been haunted by dreams of Harry Houdini.”
Last- “Knotted by the stout cord of an ampersand, the words KAVALIER & CLAY”

At once the air was filled with a heady green smell of mud and river scum, with a stench of summer rich with remembered tenderness and regret.
