Genesis
- It all began innocently enough.
- A haphazard challenge.
- To read 26 books in 52 weeks.

The only thing I'm reading is homework assignments. But progress report grades for the first quarter are due Monday, which means, amazingly, the school year is already 1/8 over.
ahhh! i'm readin as fast as i can!...ok, not really. but working on two books (adhd, anyone?): Collapse by Malcolm Gladwell and Salt: A World History by Mark Kurlansky
this year is looking to be more stressful! i like the "should be on # or so..." tho it sends a thrill of stress through me. (not sure why, as i'm caught up to your accounting. must be the coffee i just chugged...)
oops. correction (def too much coffee in my system...): Collapse is by Jared M. Diamond.
reading nothing right now.
I'm so behind in the Business Week and Newsweek so I am trying to catch up. In the Queue "White Teeth" by Zadie Smith and "Freakonomics" and my women's bible study is doing "Search for Significance". I have a 9 hr flight on Wed - maybe I can get cracking!
I actually own Salt. Got it as a gift from my high school chem teacher, who I still talk to--and who Kayan's met. Never got through it, though. I also have and someday plan to read The Quality of Life Report by Meghan Daum, an LA Times (and other places) columnist I've been impressed with. And I haven't seen Rich in months. Years, maybe.
