Book Club: Things I Can't Explain Chapters 31 & 32

Welcome to the Things I Can't Explain Book Club, this post I'm looking at chapters 31 & 32.  You can read my buddy Brandon's thoughts on the chapters here.  You and read about the other chapters by looking at this blogs past posts.

Chapter 31:  This chapter is Clarissa full of self pity and depression.  She gets home from the wedding, her cat Elvis is missing and she ignores Nicks phone calls.  She disconnects from social media and the world for several days.  Elvis still hasn't returned.  She forces herself to finish the article and oversleeps the deadline, but she emails it to MT to say that she did it.  The email comes back undeliverable, she tries again and it is returned again.  She thinks about emailing it to Dartmoor, but decides to go back to bed. 

Chapter 32: A strong work ethic that Hugh beat into her drives Clarissa out of bed and to the Nuzegeek offices to hand deliver the article.  She even takes the time to dress nicely for her believed firing.  When she gets there that evening the offices are quite, she sees MT and Norm making out near the lounge and just avoids them placing her article on MT's assistant Druscilla's desk.  As she tries to slip out Druscilla sees her and tries to tell her that they got her article and MT wants to talk to her, but Clarissa still full of self loathing just leaves.  Outside the offices she runs into a disguised Ferguson who she thinks is attacking her so he knocks him down and kicks him.  Once she realizes her error he tells her that everyone is worried and that no one can get ahold of her and that Mom & Dad will be here tomorrow.  Ferguson is wearing a disguise because he just go out of Jail and his SEC agreement doesn't allow him to be seen with Family members.  

Thoughts:  I don't think there is anything else that I need to say in addition to my chapter summaries.  

Until Next Time!
