“Self discipline has been a pleasure for me. I was a terrible student, I had a difficult time with chores and I hated every job I ever had. To make up your own stories for a living is a real piece of cake.”

— John Irving

John Irving, ladies and gentlemen. Today’s his birthday, so he knows all about cake.

I gave up trying to be Garp a long time ago. And I’ve never been Owen Meany. Both are probably good things, as are the books.

But I would like some cake please.

I suppose I’ll just have to make my own.
