Late Nite Check In

Wow, haven't been back here in awhile.  Interesting that Google doesn't ever seem to erase these blogs even when they appear to have gone defunct after months of non-activity.  Hmmm.  Don't know if I think that's a good thing or not.  In this Internet age it seems nothing ever gets lost or forgotten.  I can't imagine that's a positive technological development for societies and individuals.  

Either way, I thought I'd update all my faithful readers on what's been happening lately in my oh so exciting life.  As I'm sure those of you who've been waiting with bated breath since my last posting have been dying to know, I have indeed finished a few of the books that I'd listed as "on my reading list." Others - not so much.  I tend to be the type who picks up a dozen books at a time, starts reading them all and winds up finishing just three or four.  I guess you could say I'm more of a sprinter.  

Well, in the interests of pushing forward despite my chronic unmotivation and strong inclinations to quit, I've picked up a whole new range of books that I'm sure I'll be pretty enthusiastic about reading - at least in the short term.  I went to the Yeshiva University book sale last week. I honestly don't know quite why I try to go every couple of years, other than my unflailingly optomistic attitude which convinces me that this is the year that I'll find that one magical book which will singlehandedly reestablish my flagging faith in the religion of my childhood.   But alas, twas not to be this year. 

I did however, manage to pick up a variety of titles which I'm sure once I get around to reading them will do an excellent job of clearly outlining and explaining to me, in exquisite detail, exactly how, why and when I'm going straight to apikores hell.   

Till next time - Cheers !
