TPBM (The Person Below Me)
No, I haven't.Because there's so many books that I want to read and some that I won't get to for awhile. It's very frustrating.
TPBM is in pain?
No. Are you?(I know the feeling, Holly. You and I are in the same boat. Actually, I think that pretty much all readers have felt that way from one time or another.
If you haven't already, would you mind checking out my review of Vengeance By The Foot?)
TPBM woke up with a sore throat?
Nope, I didn't not, Dustin, but thank you for asking.;)...TPBM loves the weather where they live?
No, we're supposed to get a big snow storm.(Yeah, good point Dustin. Yes, I'll check it out. :-))
TPBM is in pain?
No.(You're very welcome, Ruth. I'm happy to hear that!)
(Thank you, Holly. As always, your support is much appreciated.:) )
TPBM is really, really looking forward to experiencing the writings of David Foster Wallace!?
No.(You're very welcome Dustin.)
TPBM needs to get reading if they want to finish their book by tomorrow?
No, but I certainly know the feeling of needing to know how your book ends! (I'll check out your comment on my review shortly.
David Foster Wallace is the author of Infinite Jest, which I REALLY want to read. I think I've mentioned it to you before. I want to read all his work, actually.)
TPBM is still thinking about the writing prompt?
Yes, very much.(Oh okay! Yes, you've mentioned it to me. I'd like to read it too.)
TPBM is getting very frustrated?
I'm a little frustrated that I woke up with a sore throat, but not overly so.(His work sounds utterly BRILLIANT!)
(Good, I'm glad it's still on your mind, Holly.)
TPBM really needs to catch up on some things here?
Yes, I do.I'm getting very frustrated because my back has been killing me all day and I can't seem to get comfortable enough for it to lighten up. :-\
(Yes, it does!)
( :-))
TPBM needs to be more active in some of their groups?
I'm pretty active in most groups, actually. I enjoy them a lot!(Oh, why is your back so very sore? I'm sorry to hear that..:(
I'm glad that you agree. I'll probably start with some of Wallace's shorter work before attempting to tackle Infinite Jest. I'll definitely let you know my thoughts on them!)
TPBM wants to get a lot of reading done today?
Yes.(It's a chronic thing. Thank you. That sounds like a good plan. I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts on his work.)
TPBM really wants to read some classics?
I do, yes. (You're welcome. Do chronic back problems run in your family? Thank you, I think so too! It'll be an honor to share them with you!)
TPBM loves talking with great friends!?
Yes!!!! :-D(No, it doesn't. Great! :-))
TPBM can't wait to start their buddy reads?
I am very much looking forward to future buddy reads, yes!(Oh, all right. Do you mind me asking what it stems from..?)
TPBM needs to respond to several PM's, ASAP?
No, I don't have any at the moment.(No, I don't mind. I got hit by a car several years ago.)
TPBM is thinking about taking a break from studying to catch up on their reading?
No, but I would like to catch up on reading.(I'll respond to your PM soon, I promise.
Oh, that's horrible, Holly!! I'm so sorry to hear that..:( )
TPBM has a birthday party to attend on Saturday?
Nope.(No worries Dustin. Take your time. :-) Thank you.)
TPBM is determined to finish their book?
Yes, of course.. and I will!(My nephew's 8th birthday falls on the 26th, but they're celebrating this Saturday. It should be fun! I just hope there aren't a ton of screaming kids around!
All right. I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed, and so I just need to respond accordingly.
You are so very welcome, buddy. If you ever feel up to talking about it, please know that I'll always be here.)

Yes.Bad news at the eye doctor. But he'll be okay. Why are you worried about yours?

What news did he receive at the eye doctor?)
TPBM needs to get going now?
No.(Oh gosh! I hope she feels better! He has glaucoma in his left eye. :-\)

TPBM is going now, for sure?
No, just got back.(I wish her luck. Thank you.)
TPBM is hot?
No, I'm just right.:)(You're very welcome. Thank you, Holly! The doctor prescribed her some vicodin for the pain, which is helping, but she's still really hurting.)
TPBM isn't feeling well?
No, I'm fine.I hope you feel better Dustin!
(At least she has something to take for the pain. I wish her well.)
TPBM can't believe all the buddy reads they have coming up?
No, I really cannot!(Thank you. We're very thankful that she was able to get something to combat it, otherwise I don't know what she's do! The Ibuprofen wasn't doing a thing!!
Thank you, Holly! I'm glad that you're feeling well.)
