Nothin'

What are you currently reading?

A Scanner Darkly by Philip K. Dick (Author) - The narrator tries to have a separation between his copsona and his drugsona, but its obvious the two are blurring. A lot of the drug induced antics makes me think of all the times ive hung out with folks like this. So yeah, I can see how this could be autobiographical.

Scanner Darkly! Yes, not my favorite of his works, but a classic. :)

I always think of this Dr Octagon (I wonder if the "blue flowers" are the same as the book, that is)

This is one of the few of his works that was adapted semi-faithfully into film. the other notable one being Impostor. This one is special because it was born out of his own experience as a drug using FBI informant, and came about when he believed he was under government surveillance while he was irresponsibly mixing speed and acid.
