Popping in

Someone said on another blog recently, as one of his blogging tips, that he dislikes those "I'm too busy to blog" posts. Why not take the time you're using to say that to actually say something you've been meaning to blog about. This is a very good point!

So, instead of saying, "I'm just popping in to say I'm still alive," I'll find something interesting to say.

My great hubby is making me a cool tool so I can randomize my TBR list. I'm such a nerd and want to say, ok, I have all these books on my TBR pile - make a decision for me! So, my nerd partner is writing me a program to do it with. Anyone want me to share it once it's done?

I've been reading the same books for weeks, which sort of explains my serious lack of posts. I just haven't had anything "bookish" to say. I'm about 3/4 of the way through American Gods and will pick up my next LibraryThing Early Review book, Love Marriage, when I finish, hopefully in the next few days. Laura and I are minutes away from being done with The Amber Spyglass, and I think I have something short enough in my Audible.com queue to listen to before school is over 2 weeks from now. I am *seriously* going to miss listening to books with her in the morning when she starts riding the bus to middle school next fall (well, really it will stop when school ends this year).

I do still have to make my Weekly Geeks post for this week, but I think I'll go read for now instead.
