The Black Horse of the Blog World

So, I have a bunch of extra books, mostly paperback, but some hardbacks. I’ve been slowly replacing my books with hardbacks, as I come across them at various Library book sales. What does this mean?

*UPDATE* The above link obviously no longer works. Contact me directly if you have questions.

Some of you may remember marvin. Some of you may already be back on marvin. Marvin is a mailing list. What’s it for? Well, it’s just a way to connect and coordinate people who know people.

No, I think I’m going to make some choices on things that are purely for my own enjoyment, and then set out to achieve them. I figure that way I can not only accomplish goals, but I can also rebalance against all the stresses that occur in life anyhow. Why add to them?

Gathers no moss. As you can see, this site has been sitting dormant for a while. You might think I’ve had nothing going on worth talking about, but that’s not the case. I’ve been so busy I haven’t really been able to stop and write. Anyhow, I’ve got a lot to talk about since Thanksgiving; work, parties, friends, The Two Towers and other movies, holiday gift shopping, and best of all, something I’ll save for the read more link, so read more….
