You would think that, with me being unemployed for over six months, I would have more posts for you. Job hunting has taken a large chunk of my time. Also, I have gotten back into knitting, so I have some knitting book recommendations. All in all, I have really just reread some old favorites and complained at a few authors for not at least letting me(the world) know about when the next book will be out. Okay, just one, and only because my mother dearly would love to read the next book.
When I step into this library, I cannot understand why I ever step out of it.

I went up to San Francisco yesterday, had wonderful crepes at Ti Couz on 16th street and Velencia, and then went down to Body Manipulations to have my ears pierced. The assistant manager Eldo did my ears, my fourth and fifth set, and was so awesome that I had to post about it. If you are going to get any piercing done, go to them.
Oh for a book and a shady nook…

I never thought it would get too hot to read. I hate global warming.
Never judge a book by its movie.
J. W. Eagan
I recently saw The Incredible Hulk movie. Surprisingly good. I loved Edward Norton as Bruce Banner, and Liv Tyler is perfectly casted as Dr. Ross. I have never been a Hulk fan, but the movie was very good, plus the tie-in to Iron Man was great. No more spoilers, go see it for yourself. Also, currently reading
The Darkness That Comes Before (The Prince of Nothing, Book 1). So far very good. I think I am at that point in which I have too many books to read and not enough time to write reviews on them. Hopefully soon I will have a few out.
Where is human nature so weak as in the bookstore?
Henry Ward Beecher
In fact, I am off to the bookstore this afternoon. For those that want to know what I am in the middle of, I am currently reading
World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War as well as
Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell: A Novel. But I am the type of person that isn’t happy unless my nightstand is groaning under the weight of all of the books it has on it.
I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book.
Groucho Marx
There is a great deal of difference between an eager man who wants to read a book and the tired man who wants a book to read.
G. K. Chesterton
Don’t join the book burners. Don’t think you’re going to conceal faults by concealing evidence that they ever existed. Don’t be afraid to go in your library and read every book…
Dwight D. Eisenhower
All of the presidents of this country have some amazing quotes, some just sing truer to my heart and soul.
A room without books is like a body without a soul.
Cicero
There is no mistaking a real book when one meets it. It is like falling in love.
