I am a ladybug in amber...

So I finally got around to reading Slaughterhouse-Five! I always knew that I would be a Kurt Vonnegut fan, if ever I could find the time to get to one his works in the pile of books I've amassed over the past few years (from Christmas gifts, hand me down books from my Mom, and random second-hand book stores). Well, the Master's is long done, and I am loving my new found time for non-academic reading.

Actually, I am tempted to make a list of all the books I have read of late and post it here for y'all to check out. ("y'all being all six of you, if that!) Hmm.... I will add making a 'book list' to my 'to-do list' for tomorrow. Also on my 'Sunday to-do list' is to make a 'grocery list'. And to make a 'weekly to-do list' for the upcoming week. I have to admit, I am a bit of a chronic list maker. One of my work buddies asked me what I was up to this weekend, and my first thought was "checking things off my lists".

There you go, perhaps some of you learned something about me today. (HW, check out all this opening up... I'm just one big open... book!) HA.

Current Fave Quote:

"Why you? Why us for that matter? Why anything? Because this moment simply is. Have you ever seen bugs trapped in amber? ... Well, here we are, Mr. Pilgrim, trapped in the amber of this moment. There is no why."

Thanks KV. I so wish you weren't dead.
