November Nods

A collection of short stories is a great thing to have on your nightstand for those times when either sleep is evasive or when odd dreams are frequent. Last night, I moved through two more of the short stories in Holidays on Ice. (After admitting that I had begun the book, I have now lost any guilt of continuing.) These are not your traditional holiday stories though; these are tales of dysfunctional families with some type of odd drama occurring near a holiday which results in an over-the-top behaviour by a family member. Hmmm, maybe they are traditional.

My day reading has been focused on 20th century U.S. Politics so I have quite the contrast to Sedaris.

Balance, or an attempt at balance.
