I am in awe of Wallace. This passage is magnifique: p.798 "Hal hasn't heard one human voice since he came in. The place's silence has that glittery sound of total silence. His footfalls make no sound on the Dacronyl. He feels furtive and burglarish and holds the NASA glass down at his side and the NA booklet higher up and cover-out as a sort of explanatory I.D. ..."

Bimmy pees himself on Dilaudid and M&Ms. And it was really snowing which effectively cancelled the tennis meet...

Spooky J. O. Incandenza as bothersome wraith doing purgatory. Ha.

Notes and Errata 337. I actually looked up the referenced line in Hamlet that has italicized 'se offendendo'. No wonder this is taking me so long. :- /

Hilarious dialogue between Remy and Katherine. Remy spins a real hooter about how he met his comatose wife.

'il ne faut plus qu'il pursuive le bonheur.' He no longer needs to pursue happiness. (because he's dead?). Most translations I found in DFW punditry translate it as thus: 'It is no longer necessary to pursue happiness.' That seems out of touch. I also like 'to hell with happiness'' better. Think smiley face icon with a line through it. Ha.

first time an actual reference to one of the chapter title dates in the body. "tonight, 11/14 - Joelle even considered possibly showing somebody the face."

Hal watches dad's movies after getting beat; Everything you always wanted to know about anhedonia but were afraid to ask; Tons of other stuff 'bout to go down; Purse grabbing or as D. Trump would say, 'grabbing their pursies'.
