+ And the book reads.....
Tony Parson's :: Man and boy
*Once upon a time...er.. *heCk! So okay.. i got down reading, again, ever sinCe i havent had muCh things to do at the moment..well apart frOm my daiLy pRank-Fun i play on my "belOved" frens! So what i'm reading you say?! The title's Man and Boy.. one of the books i randomly flip out frOm the library shelves, which amazingly turn out to be wOrth the read! If u're da sOrt who talks more in your minD, than you actually are in perSon.. then this boOk's for you! I lOve the way the authOr piCks out wOrds to identifY the different characters in the stOry and their "style" of communicating to one anOther. Its interesting tO knOw what's going thru the mind of a 30 yr old man.. and hOw he slOwly piCks up dOin siNgle parent stuff like chOres and minding his 5 yr old boy, sinCe the day his wife, Gina, left him for Japan to pUrsUe her career afTer his one-night stanD wiTh sOme teenagE chiC*
Allow me to quOte some bitEs from the bOok::
'Come on! It was one night, Gina. How many times are we going to have this conversatiOn??'
"Until you understand the way i feel. If you can do it once, you can do it a thousand times. That's the firSt law of fuCking around. The unified theory of fuCking arOund cLearly states that if they do it once, they will do it again and again. You broke my truSt and i just don't know how to mend it. And that hurts me too, Harry."
"I've discussed what happened with RiChard"
'Richard? Is that his name?! Richard. Hah! Richard. Rich. Dicky. Dick. Old Richard Dicky-dickhead.'
"Sometimes i look at you and Pat, and i honestly can't tell which one is the four-yr-old."
'It's easy. I'm the one who can pee without getting anything on the floor.'
