Ennui - Horrible Horrible Ennui

Just Kidding.

Went to the library and after wading through the drunk shirtless guys and the homeless people I picked up "The Naked Lunch" by William S. Burroughs. I've never read it, but it's supposedly it was highly influential in the cyberpunk movement, and since I am a cyberpunk fan I decided what the hell.

Also picked up a biography of Andrew Jackson and a novel about a British cavalry officer in the Indian Raj. Hesitant about the Jackson biography because I am a fan of Jacksonian democracy, or at least Jacksonian democracy as I understand it and I don't want that understanding crushed. :-P
