That being said - it made me go to a theatre dance class I wouldn't have normally gone too - and I was apparently really fierce - so it was all worth it!:)
Oryx and Crake is infiltrating my mind - it's such a horrific yet realistic and somehow idealistic view of the future - that makes you rethink your views on death, life, genetic engineering, global warming, perfection, math, science, botox, animals, altered environments, univeristies, advertising, germs, medicine, pharmaceutical companies, government, the press, food, basically everything under the sun. It is so well written, sometimes I forget I'm reading fiction - and when I get off the subway (where I'm reading it) half expect to run into a pigoon or wolvgog or for the weather to permanently scalding. (fortunately the "Februrary Fury blizzard is a constant reminder that THIS is not a reality - yet.) It is one wild and crazy book. Can't wait to discuss it with book club.
Excited for a week sans auditions - technically bad for business - but good for psyche - and will let me focus on Fiddler on the Roof!:)
