Life : Ahhhh, books
I am an avid reader, usually going through 50-60 books in a year, sometimes more. I think my record is from the year I spent 3 hours commuting on a train every day when I managed to read almost 90 books (and very nearly emptied my "to be read" shelf in the process – I was down to only 3 books left!).
For a variety of reasons this has been a relatively light year – I haven't counted; but I doubt I will reach 30 books. That's OK, although I'll note that while I was vaguely conscious of not having spent as much time reading this year, I failed to change my purchasing habits, so at present my list of books to read is getting quick long.
So it was with great pleasure, as my vacation days dwindle down that I have been able to set a few days aside to just read. I have been running through book at a rate of about a book a day. The latest was Sean Astin's autobiography "There and Back Again", which I did not find very complimentary of the author.
Anyway, I hope to get through at least a couple more books before I have to head back to the office on Tuesday.

Perhaps I can tempt you away with a bit of TV or a movie? (-;
Have to remember to hide your specs (-:
