Reading Too Much

Despite falling behind in my blogging since my return from travelling, I now find myself someplace I didn't truly think I'd reach: about to start the 8th book of WoT. I haven't read it since I stayed up all night when I was in 11th grade. I barely remember what happens in it - most I don't recall at all. And after that I've not read any of them. It's been an interesting rereading, and I should babble about it a lot in the blog, but I've gotten so far ahead of where I meant to that it's all kind of daunting now. :) Ah well...I forge ahead into forgotten and unknown waters! :)

I'm reading book 2 right now. It's fun! Well, by reading, I should say, "listening to on CD while I drive hours and hours to work..."
Good to hear you'll be coming back soon! The US missed you. We should talk about how I should get furniture to you.
Oh, could you send your mom's addy to me once more? I haven't sent the check I owe you yet because I can't find the e-mail where you sent the address!
LOVE!

What's WoT?

I for one am glad you're coming back. I'll spare you the why, but remind me to tell you how I went off to live in Mexico when I was about your age -- your comments sound very similar to my experience. Sorry to hear that Tina's still not feeling well. You're doing the right thing (and did I mention this pain in my elbow?)

Cheers,
Himself

WoT is Wheel of Time, a series of books by Robert Jordan which I've loved since I was a kid but I've fallen behind in the new ones because of college. Robert Jordan died last month, the series unfinished, and I'm very upset about it but it can't be helped. There are 11 books out, and the next was supposed to be the last, but due to being busy and aggravation with the series in a general way, I'd never read past the 8th book. I'm now halfway through the 9th. :)

You've mentioned Mexico to me, we should definitely chat about it. Coming back will certainly make planning for the holiday's easier! ;) And I'll be based out of NYC, which is closer to you than I've been since I went to college, not bad at all in my mind, we should go hiking! ;) And you did mention your elbow last we spoke - I hope it's doing better!
