I don’t know if it was the travel all day on Sunday with a horde of other travelers or the combination of a flu shot and giving blood on Monday or some food I ate but I got sick last night, very, very sick…and it was horrible.

I’ve been in bed all day reading Momzillas (total chick lit.) which I picked up at the library on Monday. It’s about super rich, competitive stay at home moms on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. It provided the perfect distraction from my sickness. The book is ok, itself. A lot of shortened versions of words like ‘convo’ are dispersed throughout. The language of the book is definitely influenced by instant messenger speak. In fact, instant messenger is used as a tool in the book to convey knowledge behind the narrator/protagonist’s back. It was also about a woman going through an identity crisis after finishing graduate school, getting married and having a baby. That was the much more interesting part of the novel and one that the author Jill Kargman could have delved into more. Well, hopefully, I’ll feel better soon and be able to post about books more!
