Beautiful book

I’m happy with this big old book about Egypt that I found today.

Thanks. It was actually one hell of a find.

Now that one looks really interesting. I love the blue and gold design on the cover.

And a stack of basically everything written by Augusten Burroughs, except for Running With Scissors, which I have already read.

“We Have Always Lived in the Castle” by Shirley Jackson. Nice and creepy.

I’m reading this right now as well! Love the short chapters as I sometimes have trouble staying awake. I’ve read most of Augusten as well. He’s fantastic. I think we are twins of some sort, Jene. Enjoy the reads!

A bender back in the day:

We could now hear the effects of the brandy in the Ottawa town. They were singing and yelling in the most hideous manner, both night and day. Their frolic ended worse than ours. Five Ottawas were killed and a great many wounded.

Sunday I lost my phone and have been awaiting a new simcard since. Then this morning my home internet connection went down and stayed down for about 8 hours, while I am home on sick leave. Finally finally finished this book, that I lay down a couple of years ago. Anybody planning any under the rim activity in Grand Canyon should be obliged to read this first. Very instructive. I made some elementary mistakes when I hiked in and out of it in April 2018. But escaped unscathed. It’s also a gripping read BTW.

Soft City by Pushwagner. Cool distopian graphic novel. Very short, takes 15 mins to read but very thought provoking. Interesting art style too.

Just started this and I really like it. I think it’s going to be a winner. I’m going through a graphic novel phase for sure.
