Defenestrating Thoughts from the Bivouac

I used to be good about blogging about books I read, but for about a year now, I haven’t reviewed anything… so there’s some weirdness that I’ll start up again by writing about a book I’m just a few chapters into.

The other day while hunting for something to read, I picked up my copy of A Game of Thrones, fully intending to re-read the series.

But then I noticed a recommendation on the back cover that said, “Reminiscent of T.H. White’s A Once and Future King…” and thought, “Wait I have that book and still need to read it!” I bought the book two and a half years ago, using a birthday gift certificate from Crissy’s parents and still hadn’t read it. That’s pretty sad. :-(

So I started reading it last night and it’s really really good! I can’t believe I’ve never read it before. For tonight, I had planned a quiet evening reading, but after about 2 weeks of cold, cloudy weather, the sun finally came out.

As a result, we’ll probably go out somewhere. After all, sun is so rare in Seattle; you have to go out and play when you get the chance.

(And if you’re keeping count, it’s now less than two weeks before our big move to Boulder! 300 days of sunshine per year, here we come!)
