I could blame my lack of posting on business but that wouldn't be entirely honest. In actuality, while I have been putting in lots of hours at my jobs and trying to improve my study habits, I've had more free time than I would have expected. I guess I'm starting to adapt to working fullish time.
So what have I been doing you might ask? Well, I've been burning my way through stacks of books that I've neglected. A sample of the tomes recently devoured: My Man Jeeves - P.G. Wodehouse, Out of the Silent Planet, Perelandra, That Hideous Strenth - C.S. Lewis, The Icarus Hunt - Timothy Zahn. I've also started, played and beaten the Campaign for Age of Empires III and worked my way up to a level 13 German home city in Skirmish mode. Most importantly, I've caught up almost a months worth of Bible readings that I've steadily gotten behind on.
Now I've moved on to the Black Book of Communism, Freakonomics, 9 Marks of a Healthy Church, and More Guns, Less Crime. I have a tendency to read alot of books concurrently.
Hopefully, my excuses will let me off the hook and you won't all leave me for more fertile online fields of stimulation. Things should get better as I prepare for DUCK TAPE ACROSS AMERICA DAY!

Hmmm, sounds sticky and grey.
I can forgive blog slackiness because you're reading such good stuff! Where did you get a hold of My Man Jeeves? I can't find it, even at my library. Sigh.
I've always meant to read C.S. Lewis's sci-fi trilogy, but was scared away becuase they seemed frightfully boring. How were they?
And I love the cover on Freakonomics, the apple/orange thing. It made me want check it out, but so far I've only admired it from a distance.
Now, we know you've been reading, we demand book reviews! :-)
Excellent! That sounds like my summer plans. :) Read, play some guitar, read, work on my art, read, camp, read, oh, yeah, and read. :)
C.S. Lewis' space trilogy rocks! Don't let the little bit dry beginning stop you. I loved it!
"DUCK TAPE ACROSS AMERICA DAY!"
That almost sounds interesting?:)
