As of 4:30 PM, I have gotten through 100 additional pages of Gotham. It really is a terrific book, very hard to put down. With 3-1/2 hours before 8 PM, I figure I can get through just about 50 pages more, putting me right at my goal of getting through 150 pages today. This would…
The goal today is to get through about 150 pages or so of Gotham, which will put me in a good position to finish up by Friday. It’s just about 8 AM now, and if I get started at 8 AM, and give myself until 8 PM (with a few breaks, of course), I can…
I got a badly needed haircut today. Zeke is in the background admiring the view.
For the last couple of mornings, when I leave for work, I’ve heard this fast drumming-like sound, something that sounds like a cell phone on vibrate on a wood table. It occurred to me the other day, that the sound is, in fact, a woodpecker in my neighbors tree. I can hear it right now…

I turned out the lights at 10 PM last night and slept fitfully until just after 1 AM. Since then, I’ve been awake, unable to go back to sleep. I’m debating giving up, turning on the light and reading until I have to get ready for work, in about 4 hours, but I’m going to…
I got this DVD from NetFlix today and it is one of the funniest things I’ve seen in a long time. I’ve always been a Christopher Walken fan, but this is him at his funniest. I laughed through the entire hour and twenty minutes of skits.
I’ve just ordered my 998th book, Joe Haldeman’s War Stories. This means that I need 2 more books to reach 1,000. One of the two books I’m already planning on ordering–it’s the one volume I’m missing in the 11-volume Story of Civilization series by Will Durant. That means, I really only need one more book…
I hate the soap in the men’s room at work. It smells like latex!
