I've been sick with the flu this week and stayed home from work. Am NOT looking forward to going back tomorrow. UGH.

In other news, thought I'd do the reading meme, what the heck.

What are you reading now?

The Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan. I started it in January via Overdrive but it expired and got returned so I got it back off hold finally and am finishing the last bit now. I would be done by now but I really was too sick to read this past while.

What did you just finish reading?

A Conspiracy of Kings by Megan Whalen Turner. I tried reading The Thief about a bajillion years ago but just bounced off the first person POV. Tried again last week and read all four of the books in the series like I was eating candy. Crack candy. I literally, COULD NOT STOP and just went through all four like hotcakes. (I was kind of underwhelmed by The Thief still, but Queen of Attolia was seriously like HOMG where have you been all my life?!!!

What will you read next?

That's up in the air. I've got a handful of books borrowed from the library and another couple borrowed from the library via Overdrive . . . .

I had a real post all planned out for today. Possibly about how frustrating work was, or more likely, how beautiful and clear the night sky was walking back to my apartment, a dark midnight blue with 40-50 stars visible (I counted) and Mars shining brightly, and white clouds like ghostly waves dusting the sky here and there . . .

. . . but I'm coughing too damn much to write it.
