Readathon: Hour 20

Pages Read: 11
Blogs visited: Oh shit, I forgot to keep count!
Snack: A highly-seasoned wurst dipped in mustard

Still reading Julie and Julia. I've settled into Julie Powell's writing style, but things still irritate me. This particular chapter starts with Julie sitting with a broken foot, swollen and discolored, but I've been reading for two pages now and I still have no idea how she broke it. Nope, we're off on a tangent about her commitment-phobe best friend from college. The mini-chapters in 1944 Ceylon with Paul Child and Julie McWilliams (who will one day become Julia Child) are so neat and tidy and leave the reader wanting more. Whimper.
