That&#8217;s one thing about reading trifling (if vastly entertaining) books over and over again. It&#8217;s like describing the last-but-two pizza I ate. Um, I&#8217;m sure it was fine, but, um, yeah, I&#8217;m sure it was fine. And now I&#8217;ve got three books stacked up on the must-make-notes pile, and two of the books are rather thick paperbacks, so if I don&#8217;t get a couple of these off the stack before I finish re-reading <I>Hans Brinker<\/I> the whole thing will topple over onto my foot. And I&#8217;ll deserve it. And that&#8217;s not to mention that I am three weeks behind on the parshah notes. And it&#8217;s hard to concentrate on blogging when I&#8217;m listening to the Giants on the radio for the first time since 3rd October. Not because the game is interesting, except in a &#8220;the ball gets away from Matheny&#8221; sort of way, but it&#8217;s baseball! Maybe I&#8217;ll go out before it gets dark and see if yesterday&#8217;s snow killed all those daffodils.\n<p>Thank you,<br>-Vardibidian.\n<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well, and I\u2019ve no idea when I actually re-read A Civil Campaign, but it was sometime in February.
