You’re the little piglet, eating in bed with one hand at yourlaptop, probably licking your fingers while you write, Ginger Snap.

I can’t sleep. So I’ve spent the last hour rereading our messages, and I’ve realized you’ve never told me really about that book you like so much. So maybe now’s a good time. That way I’ll have something to do tonight besides stare at the ceiling until dawn.

You know what would help you sleep? Reading the book yourself. There must be a bookstore or library nearby where you can find it.
