Tuesday is martes

I must admit it is taking me an embarrassingly long time to finish reading Frankenstein.  It's a good book, but I have virtually nill time to read.  Also, when reading books written with older language, it takes me a minute to get into it, thus I can't read a paragraph here and a paragraph there while taking notes in Spanish class.  It requires a certain level of concentration.  I vowed to finish it over spring break, but alas... 

I just renewed the thing, and I have until the 28th.  A decent amount of time, you may say, to read the second half of a not-actually-that-long novel.  We'll see.  The next book I hope to read is Running With Scissors, but there are so many books on the list I can't be certain.  I miss those lovely summer days when I read a book almost daily.

On the topic of renewing books, I love being able to renew books online.  It's such a breeze, and while I'm at it I can scout out new titles and check library hours.  It's a fabulous business.  All available from the comfort of my kitchen while I simultaneously blog about it in another window.

Although it is officially the season of new life and spring break has come and passed, it was exceptionally windy today.  Chills you to the bone, it does.  Power outages sprinkling the area, etc.  Even though I do tend to curse it as I heave myself out of the pool after practice, I do love the wind.  It's so very powerful.

Although I have no idea when the mango sitting on my kitchen counter will ripen, you just read my blog update of the day.
