Stopped by Barnes and Noble and used up my giftcard from Christmas. I’m going to read The Hound of the Baskervilles by Sunday, and more Neil Gaiman is always a good thing.
I was kind of sort of training her in, so I decided to try to get to know her a little.
Me: So, do you like reading? Or TV or anything?
Her: I hate reading.
Me:

So uh, what TV shows do you like?
Her: I watch MTV stuff, like Teen Mom. And Degrassi. What about you?
Me: Oh, I like BBC stuff. Sherlock and Doctor Who. And House, and shows like that.
Her: …. Doctor Who? Never heard of them. I don’t watch that kind of stuff.
Me:

Her: Oh, and Twilight! I love Twilight so much.
Me:


She did turn out to be nice… but we have absolutely nothing in common. And my sense of humor scares her.

Is it really that sad and pathetic that I find myself catching and laughing at each of the Metamorphosis references in Paper Monsters?
Oh the life of an AP lit student.
