So tonight I had dinner, which is normal. The abnormal part was that it was unlike any dinner I’ve ever prepared for myself.
(just ignore the dirty stove)
I took a picture in case no one would believe me.
The bag it came in was a little tough to open so I almost abandoned the idea for a big bowl of ice cream, but I managed all the same.
I followed this up with some roasted almonds, then raw almonds, then granola, then I got out some yogurt for the granola.
The challenge now is to resist the temptation to eat a big bowl of ice cream before I go to bed.
Actually, that should be pretty easy. I’ll just eat it straight from the carton.

If I read 76 books a year until I’m 80 years old I will have read 3,000 books.
Of course, I don’t know the actual number of books I’ve read. I only know that I’ve read or listened to approximately 82 books in the last 3 years. A few of those are books I remember reading while growing up (real books).
If I could remember all the books I read growing up the full number would probably be closer to 150, or at least I hope it would.
So basically, my depth of reading is pretty sad.
I recently started twittering about my book reading over at 3000books. I also have the domain 3000books.com, but I haven’t set anything up on it yet. When I get around to it it’ll be a book reading blog, naturally.
My most recent reads:
I am currently listening to The 8th Habit by Stephen R. Covey and just started reading The Fellowship of the Ring By J.R.R. Tolkien.
I’m still poking along at several books on dailylit: The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, A Tale of Two Cities, and Little Women. Whew!
Not that that’s enough. I just purchased The Joseph Smith Papers, Out of the Silent Planet (already read it, but it was among those lost when I moved), Perelandra, and That Hideous Strength.
So if you’ll excuse me, I’m gonna go get busy reading (or listening).

I just noticed that I only posted on the first and last days of this month. Whoops.
