Making lists

Winter break is the perfect excuse to curl up with tea and a book, and I intend to take full advantage of this fact. Tomorrow (er, today?) my plan is to get up far earlier than 12:30 in the afternoon and head to the library to stock up for the month. There are so many books that I feel like I should've already read after twenty years on the planet . . . it's never too late to attempt to catch up, I guess.

Sweet Jesus, twenty is a big number. I'm still wrapping my head around that.

Anyways, I have two lists in the works:

The Book List
  • The Handmaid's Tale
  • Catch-22
  • Lolita
  • On The Road
  • The Satanic Verses
  • The Stranger
  • Faust
  • One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest
The Music List
  • Leonard Cohen
  • Belle & Sebastian
  • Bob Dylan
  • Paul Robeson
  • Pete Seeger
  • Wilco
  • Destroyer
  • Jenny Lewis & the Watson Twins
  • Joan Baez
  • Odetta
So that's tomorrow. Any suggestions?

Oh, and as far as tea goes . . . before leaving Geneseo I picked up a box of Yogi Tea's Chai Redbush to try and it is my new favorite. Wegmans and Wild By Nature carry it . . . just add a little bit of honey. Or better yet, come to my house and I will share a cup with you.

Also, I'm glad you got a chuckle out of my Monday morning mental lapse. I'm laughing about it, too. Heh heh.
