OH hey, totally missed this before. Sorry about that. Thanks to all. I had a simple birthday. Got to go out and just kinda hangout with two of my guy friends, then my wife and I had dinner. I mostly just bought things at the new Half Priced Books down the road from me. Couple "Left Behind" books (completing the set), "Ivanhoe", "Harry Potter & the Goblet of Fire", "And Then There Were None" by Agatha Christie, and "Lost World" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
I'm currently reading Ivanhoe, as the person who recommended it to me years ago is now on his last leg due to cancer and I kinda felt I owed it to him to finish it, as he said it was his favorite book and that if ever I read a book make it that one. I started and stopped once due to how hard of a read it is (two or so pages just describing what a person looks like, or 3 pages to describe a field, and it's very old, so it's written old, etc). But now I want to finish it for him, so I'm trying and have made it further and am enjoying it much more.
