i made it to 36 books. i had given up on the goal of 40 books around thanksgiving, and was happy enough that i had kept track of everything i had read throughout the year. so i decided to keep doing it for 2008.
but here's the sad part.
i've only read 6 books so far this year - almost halfway through 2008, and i've averaged one book a month. by this time last year, i had read 14 books! the problem is that i drive to work now instead of taking the train, one of the many things i miss about new york and have been missing more lately.
a 45 minute commute to work is just barely my limit in the car - days when there is traffic really test my patience. there are definite advantages to driving over taking the train (not having to worry about how much stuff i bring with me to work, being able to sing at the top of my lungs... well that's about it actually), but i miss my reading time.
i'm a nerd.

why don't you read when you're home?!?!?!! oh, cause you're too busy being popular and having an overfleoin social calendar?
dude. bring the books to work and just read instead of working. it will be fine. lol
i am SOOO impressed that you were able to read that much last year!
the train must be nice...but also, i do really like to sing as loudly as possible.
before you get too nostalgic about the train, let's remember: humidity, sweat, rats, b.o., standing, and more humidity. there's nothing like dripping with sweat when you arrive to work at 7:45. reading is nice though. who's "jennster"? "overfleoin" is awesome.
nora- jennster is awesome. eoin wants to be as awesome as ster is. it's a good goal for him. right?
jennster is my work girlfriend.
teerish is my work mistress.
omg - i am so glad i get to be your mistress. (ha - typo - i wrote "mister" first!)
that's really hot.
(sean says "hott" - is that normal?)
Took me time to read the whole article, the article is great but the comments bring more brainstorm ideas, thanks.
