Cafe Guy

The guy from the cafe is bounding up and down the cabin wearing a tight red polo shirt and chewing gum. As for me, I'm now too sleepy (post-pastrami) to accomplish much productive, so I've watched a TV episode and lamented that I left my novel on the plane.

What I've read so far this trip: The Path of Minor Planets, by Andrew Sean Greer, and Oracle Night, by Paul Aster. A reviewer claims that the first masterfully explores "the emotional lives of highly intelligent people." While I enjoyed it, it may have taken someone more, um, highly intelligent than me to completely get the ending.

Great astronomy imagery, though. And I felt for the characters. Of course, I feel for pretty much any character better developed than the Hardy Boys.
