Sounds like the life I had once upon a time (young pre-engineer in community college and all that), and... I am so sorry!

The flip side is I have Gene Wolfe's almost-latest (I missed the hardback version completely but have the paperback) 1st of his new series, and... I got three or four chapters into it on the flight home, and nothing since.

I don't reach much fiction at home anymore, what with All The Things To Be Done. (I still haven't removed all the concrete walkway I jack-hammered in August; the new lawn will have to wait until spring.)

Welp. If I could trade my life for someone else's, I would prefer to be busy and productive. However: I have learned to live an "exciting" life vicariously through my FRiends.

So if I seem to be "interested" in everything everyone does, I am. But it's purely selfish, I assure you!

On a sweeter note...the title for my truck came today, so I'm in Driver Heaven!
