Life of Janny

I finally got my hair trimmed two days ago. I really should have gone before Christmas. The hairdresser straightened my hair after. It took her such a long time. Oh well, it looked good in the end.

Last night I went to a reading by Yann Martel. He read a draft of a book about the holocaust sort of. You really had to be there to hear it to know what it was about. It was very interesting.

Before Yann Martel, there were two poetesses who read. The first one was trying to be shocking and original but really was completely boring. There was nothing clever or interesting about her. The next one was pretty neat -- I liked her poems. I guess she is a prof at the university.

Strange note of the evening: I am convinced that the woman sitting in front of me was wearing orangutan boots. They were orangish fur boots! Her hair matched her boots too. It was pretty bizarre.
