The Catcher in the Rye
Pages: 158-166

Holden gets to his apartment building and there's a new elevater guy who is stupid and Holden is thankful for this because he won't be recognized. He's not feeling drunk anymore and is able to sneak in. He goes into Phoebe's room but she is in D.B.'s room because its the biggest room and she likes it there so she stays there while he's in Hollywood. He says how she's very neat and organized and smart and well dressed for a kid and wakes her up. She immediately hugs him and starts talking about a play she's in, a movie she saw, how her parents went out, a boy who pushed her down the stairs and won't leave her alone and a bunch of things. Holden feels relived because he won't be caught since his parents aren't home and the maid is half deaf. He tells her how he bought her a record but it broke but she's going to save the pieces. He asks if D.B. is coming home for christmas but she's not sure. She figured out that Holden is home early because he got kicked out and she starts freaking out sayin that dad is going to kill him and stuff. He tries to calm her down but it doesn't work. After trying to coax her out from under her pillow, he decides to leave and get some cigarettes since he has run out.

I wish Holden would not get kicked out all the time. Also he should have told his parents or something because he blew a lot of money.

My reading today was successful because I'm almost done the book.
