    Well, you guys just wake me up when y'all are caught up, okay?

    I'm just going to keep reading ahead.

    i would have long since finished the book if i had known that reading ahead was permissible.

    I think I said earlier that we can go ahead and read; hell, nobody's following the "rules," anyway, it's all been delayed by a week, do whatever you want, seriously. I am.

    I suspect it's all going to be delayed indefinitely.

    Or, you and I will be discussing it. We were supposed to start discussing it yesterday but that never happened.

    I'm kinda over this book club thing already, truth be told.

    This is why my Professor friends HATE being Professors, LOL. I'm just not the whip-cracking type.

    I also hate surprises, so I already researched the ending of the book, heh.

    I was the kid who found all of the hidden Christmas gifts and carefully unwrapped them, saw what I was getting, then re-wrapped them and put them all back and acted sufficiently SURPRISED on Christmas morning.
    i was waiting to be told when to discuss it. i was trying to do it right.
    i think maybe we shouldn't have started it around xmas. it still might work :/

    it says there are 8 "hours" left or whatever which means 3 or 4 for me so i can be done with it post fucking haste if you want to do it that way.
