I sat down to write about my April reads, and then realized it’s going to take longer than I thought, given that it’s almost 11pm, and I need to hit the hay half an hour ago. See, this week is all about travelling hither and yon [1] and while the vast majority of the packing got done this morning (yay me for being on top of that for once!) I had a few things in the laundry which need to be ironed. And guess what I haven’t done yet? Yeah. Maybe I’ll just shove it the suitcase and use the iron in the hotel room. That works for me.
I will give you a teaser though: in the first two weeks, I read four books. In the second two weeks, I read nine books (…really!) [2]. In the last week, I read one more and finished my book club book, which was a total drag.
Also of interest – I broke down and bought the Flight of the Conchords CD today, and it was totally worth it. And I met with some friends for coffee this afternoon, and three of us had knitting with us. The elderly couple at the table next to us were gobsmacked that us youngin’s was knittin’. Erin and I were working on socks, and Rosemary was working on a sweater.
Okay, must go locate blouse. And iron. And board.
[1] And I don’t know what the weather is like in either place, which made packing a bitch.
[2] Part of the reason I can’t do this tonight is that I have much to say about them, and it’s going to have to wait.
4 books + 9 books + 1 book plus 1 more book (book club book) [AND insert the thought that this is only 3 weeks' worth of books] = EGADS, woman! Don’t you have a job? And where do you find time to knit in-between all of this??? (Speaking of which, I’m at 50 stitches…140 still to go…)
She KNITS her books.
And reads while she knits them.
She’s a dynamo.
Take that, Chuck Norris!
