I'm not heavily knowledgeable about literature, writing, etc. I guess I'm casually knowledgeable. But I do know that I would like to eventually write an autobiographical book about growing up hispanic and not having sold drugs. And this title sprung into my head, because, I mean, not to be pretentious, shit, I'm just a 3rd year undergraduate, but cmon. I'm not even sure if I ever consciensciously ackowledged the book or its title. There was a sign at my college for some spoken word thing called "Bruised Mangos". Well I'm done with my self fellating rant. And in reference to Cesar Rosado, there are no traces of a valid argument in there and he makes me hate his name. Here’s an anecdote of my own.

In fact, I was googling to see if anyone else thought so. Lo and Behold! Google brought me here. It occurred to me. In fact, I was googling to see if anyone else thought so. Lo and Behold!

My copy of When I Woke is all scratched up but I keep it around because sometimes it's the only thing that will do. Oh! And the reason it's all scratched up is that it's actually Jess Summers' copy. She took my non-scratched copy and returned her scratched one. And denied it! Not that I'm bitter. My cousin's wedding last month ended with the DJ playing Send Me On My Way and it kind of threw me. I didn't realize it was a mainstream end of party song in rural Vermont! I totally still wear the concert shirt around the house. Phil hates it.
