Back from a Break (Also, HBTM)
Sandy was good! Took some classes in the craftshop, enjoyed a shopping trip to Wolfeboro, saw some spectacular fireworks, went on some kayaking adventures, played cribbage, spent time with my family, and read on the beach.
Reading list was relatively short this time:
Lamb by Christopher Moore - Enjoyed it, but maybe Moore's style of humor isn't quite my preference?
The System of the World by Neal Stephenson - What a trilogy the Baroque Cycle was! Amazing stuff, though it took me some time to get through.
What I Talk About When I Talk About Running by Haruki Murakami - A simple, existential memoir about art, discipline, and the course of life. Well worth reading, especially if you're a fan of Murakami (and especially if you like his more contemplative stuff, like After Dark (which I read at Sandy last year)).
Also, today is my birthday. It's been a good year, and I'm looking forward to the next.
