Goodness Gracious Read already!!!!

So, I am happy to see that you all seem to be enjoying the book. I just started another of his books, "Naked". Again, funny. There is this chapter about someone in the family wiping their butts on the towels. It is pretty dang hilarious. By the way Mom, are you reading the book? I haven't read any comments from you.

That image from that book (Naked) has stayed with me for a long time. Disgusting, huh? I can just imagine what would go down in your house if someone did that. Have you gotten to the nudist colony yet? That's pretty funny too. Don't you think it's a little sad about all his OCD behavior? I like how his mom handles it, though, with a very dry and witty sense of humor in a strange way. I don't know how to describe it, but you catch my drift, right?

I did find the chapter about the OCD behavior sad and yet funny how his mom dealt with everyone that would bring it up to her. The way he writes about it you can almost feel how painful it was for him. I haven't gotten to the nudist colony yet. As far as the towel issue, I would totally freak. I just kept thinking of the crap smeared on the walls in the Johnson (lyle) house. I think we have had that conversation haven't we?

His OCD is very sad, but he adds light to it and I'm sure that others who face that can relate to what he's talking about. I'm sure he's just not admitting that he's the one who left his "mark" on the towels because then he'd be giving away the mystery that his family has been trying to solve for years.
