On reading
Posted by: J on: October 12, 2008
Maybe it’s the time of year, but I’m reading more again. Last night after work, I turned on the iPod, made some dinner, and sat down with The Historian. I started reading this a year ago and wasn’t that interested. It happens. So it went back on the shelf and I [...]

While in Denver, I took the opportunity on Tuesday night to visit The Tattered Cover. If you are ever in Denver, GO! I’m sure people thought I was strange wandering around snapping pictures, but I just had to share. I also got three great bargains. When I get back to Denver, [...]
