First Post of 2012

Well, so far it has been interesting. There may be a change here at the Mack house, but more on that as it develops--it's one of those things that could go a million different ways, you will know more when I do. Otherwise, we are recovered from the holidays and I am getting ready for my second semester at MCC. Dave has been digging Smallville lately. He keeps telling me I need to watch it with him, and keeps watching it without me. Well, someday I'll check it out, it's on my evergrowing list.

I got a lot of reading done. The problem is that I read 2 books that begin a series. And the sequels are available. So, I will track them down and try to read them after school starts. The first one was Matched, by Allie Condie. It was good, meant for young adult readers. It was a lot like Hunger Games, but not as violent. It was a great escape for a few days. I just need to go buy the next one (hopefully this weekend). The other book was called Tiger's Curse which is the first of 4 books. 3 are available, I read the first one so I have 2 more to beg, borrow and steal. Maybe it's time to get a nook so I can just download them.

Dave warned me not to start a series until all the books are done.....he says waiting and then looking for the new book (and begging Angie to let you buy it) is torture. I guess now I will be able to show some empathy for his cause. The problem is that Dave is constantly begging for more book where I only look for a book once in a while. I try to tell Dave about the magical place that lets you borrow books with a magical card, for free. He just grumbles about small town libraries. The beast is never satisfied............
