That's my only complaint about the book - I don't..."That's funny - I didn't have any problems with this part. I felt like it was a sort of hovering-over-it-all narrator, not really Janie after death but more looking back at how it was and how it could have been... I liked the Janie flashback bits, actually.

I'm sorry Jencey!!!! That's probably my fault...I was cleaning up posts on the first page and I must've hit delete on yours by accident. I thought it was weird that the one I was trying to delete didn't go anywhere and I had to do it again....
I've been having a lot of migraine like headaches lately and have been taking my perscription meds for them. Instead of going to bed like I'm supposed to, I usually end up doing other things and messing stuff up becuase I'm not 100% there.
The other night, I stayed at my bf's house and had taken one before going to bed. Apparently I tried to get up in the middle of the night and go home, but I can't recall doing that.

I've been taking it for years and it never affected me like that until recently. I had to take one at work last week and I don't remember half of the conversations I had with anyone until I took a power nap on my lunch. Then I was good....really weird. I may have to have a talk with my doctor about it soon.

Yup, I'm a BLOCKhead, have been since I was a kid. Loved this book and wouldn't have been able to get through it so quickly if I didn't have the flu the last few days. While I don't remember a whole lot from being a kid, other than absolutely loving them (Joe and Jon were/are my favorites), reading this filled in the gaps for me and gave me a new appreciation for the guys and all that they do. Some people truly are amazing.
