random thoughts – Day 2,112 (Sunday) – even more books

Finally finished this!

I’m really getting the hang of this sit at home reading thing and knocked out Happy-Go-Lucky by David Sedaris today. I bought it last March at his speaking event in Keene and started reading it in the book signing line. Then it sat in the mostly neglected and ignored bedside reading pile (with far too many other books) for a couple months before being packed and relocated to the new house. The backlog of unread books is sizeable.

Now I’m into Calypso (also Sedaris), which was a recent purchase (along with a couple other Sedaris books) when I discovered the Book Outlet website while looking for one very specific thing. To hit the level for free shipping I ended up buying eight things, because why spend the money on shipping if I can spend it on actual books instead. Am I right?

There is another winter weather advisory for tonight until 6:00 a.m. Monday with another one to two inches of snow. Best news ever. It sounds like the perfect excuse to stay inside reading for another day.  I knew if I was patient I would eventually be able to recreate the perfect Christmas breaks of junior high school – eating sweets and reading books. I finally feel like a success.
