On my way past the cash register I picked up a copy of "Lady In Satin", Billie Holiday's final recording, in which gin and cigarettes have damaged her voice as much as pain and longing had long scarred her heart. When I needed her pain to feel my own, I'd buy a bottle of bourbon and listen to it.
-- "Killing Paparazzi" by Robert M. Eversz
So much for self-discipline, eh? At eight-thirty, all the dishes were done and the ice was made and the blogging rounds completed. I had the evening clear before me, and decided to finish the book tonight. It's just as well. A good bluesy read like this is a day-ender. You don't really want to read anything else afterwards. Better to let the story settle in your soul. Nina Zero is my love.
