jon_chaisson | [Weekend] Updatery and Other Things

So we're nearing the end of our vacation...sad to see it go! I keep thinking I should have done more, especially gotten around to some heavy-duty writing, but as said in my other post, perhaps it was a good thing that I backed away from it for a bit (I have a VERY bad habit of not knowing when to let it go and give it and myself a break). Besides, we did a lot of fun things, and it was fun to hang out with

emmalyon that much! :)

On tap for today, we're hopefully going to be going through the rest of our books and do a purge--this time through hardcovers, nonfiction, and kids' books. This time out I've been making a separate pile of 'read then get rid of', which I'm currently going through. Once I type up the list and have our families go through it (just to make sure we don't get rid of anything that's theirs!), I'll post it here and we can begin the Great Book Purge that I hinted about a few months ago!

Also want to type up another RTS this weekend. It's yet another retro-thing that I've been thinking about, and when I have time I'll type it up. Hopefully you guys don't get bored with my frequent Proust-like remembrance posts...or at least are nice enough not to say anything. :p

Speaking of Proust, I made the first swing through Project Gutenberg and downloaded a goodly chunk of literary goodness that I really should dive into. There's a lot of stuff out there that I've either read only once sometime in 7th grade, or haven't read at all. When am I going to find the time to do this? Good question...but it's good to have them there. And eventually I will make it a point to read these things.

More later! :)
