Busy
Holy Mother of God. Week one of work.
Suddenly, I'm the proud owner of about a dozen casefiles. Thankfully, only half of them have court dates scheduled for the next month. This means I will actually have some days in the office to get some real work done.
Amazingly, in the span of a week, going to court has gone from a novel and flawless experience to a significant chunk out of an otherwise busy day.
But then, I can see how having half of a day out of the office every now and then can be good, too.
Now, it's the weekend and, really, the last thing I want to do at home in my free time is to look at a computer screen. Off to read this. And, if I get tired of that, perhaps this new arrival instead.
Back when I can come up for air.

Yikes. Hardly restful reading. Maybe you should try one of his books. I highly recommend Mad Laughter.
Glad to hear you're enjoying the new gig.
Heh... I know: it is kind of sick that I consider these "brain candy," but it is for me.
Doris Kearns Goodwin is a little lighter than most of the history I read (but then, I was a history major, and a geek at that), and I also picked up a fascination with Tibetan Buddhism when I was in college. I'm certainly not a Buddhist myself, but studying it (even the little that I have) acquainted me with the first belief system that compelled me to re-examine everything I had previously thought about the worldview I had constructed.
I'll have to look into the ones you recommended, though.
Oh sure, first you abandon us for work and then you abandon us for books. Jeez!
I'm still hopin' that you take my advice for light reading.
I swear, I'm sure you'd enjoy it.
