brighteryellow asked: Definitely read Zeitoun then. It's a departure, at least in my mind, from everything Dave Eggers has done because it's as if he removes himself entirely from the story. I feel that in A Heartbreaking Work (obviously), Velocity!, and even How We Are Hungry, you can feel Eggers there every step of the way, like he's part of every story.

I need a book
or two. I’m ordering A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius from Amazon and I want to get free super-saver shipping, so I need to spend like 15 more dollars. Depending on the prices, this could be one or two books. Any recommendations?

Things I don't "get":
drinkyourjuice:
smoothies
What’s not to get about a fruity, deliciously refreshing, ice-cold beverage? It has more bulk than juice, yet isn’t overly filling. If you go to the right place, you get real fruit and sometimes they’re even good for you.

I feel like writing a short story soon. I don’t remember the last time I wrote a short story, though. Or even a long one.

I had a dream in which Natalie Portman refused my invitation to high school prom. Hooray self-esteem!
