Ok... How the heck is it Monday already?... I didn't even get around to looking at the New Blog Showcase last week... (That's my first time not voting since the Axis and Alliance started down the sponsership road)... I clearly remember there being a Friday in my recent past... Saturday and Sunday just seemed to slip by though... For once I can't blame it on work... I was off all weekend... (do you really consider it being "off" when you own the company and there simply is not work?) I finally managed to finish reading a biography of George Patton I've been working on for ages... Usually I'm a pretty quick reader, polishing off a 500 page book is usually a two day commitment... This particular book, however, took me weeks literally... Yes, I didn't have two solid days to pour into it in all that time, but the problem was the way it was written... I've always been interested in WWII history, and certianlly I knew a good deal of the history of Patton already, but I've had this book for some time, and just never got to it... So really that was part of Friday and Saturday to finish it off... Then I picked up one of the other novels I've had lieing around waiting to read, and finished that off Saturday and Sunday... Certianlly no great work of literature, just your garden variety techno-thriller... (ok, I admit it, I have a whole bookshelf of this genre... so what... as long as it passes the time on boring shows...)
Other than that, nothing much exciting on the weekend... I don't suppose making my family's variety of chicken soup on Saturday is worth much of a mention... (come on now... I'm a bachelor... I eat 95% of my meals at my local pub... making anything more exotic than opening a bag of chips is odd around here... (well except grilling... but that's different...))
