book notes: you’ll grow out of it
loved it. short and fun read by a stand up comedianne/writer whom ive not heard of before. picked it up because it was cheap and with good reviews.
she got married late, around 36-37, and makes a lot of jokes about said fact. i found those very relatable. the narrative is structured in independent chapters/stories, each one fairly stand alone.
5 stars, i was laughing out loud way too many times and would highly recommend it.
book notes: when breath becomes air
cried like a baby at the end, entirely unnecessary and very cathartic.
a book about a neurosurgeon who has lunch cancer – I didn’t expect it to be uplifting but it in certain ways it was.
highlights:
- good god so much studying and work, i really do respect those who pursue a medical profession – such a responsibility
- their decision to have a baby is questionable in my mind
rice update
when I stopped trying to measure ANYTHING and just eye ball it, rice comes out perfect. I’m on a streak of like 5 pots now of various sizes. go figure.
