Had to come back to the Cumberland County Library cause I forgot my printouts yesterday. Odd sounding class in the lab, so I asked about it. It is on the "E-rate (it's a library thing)". God, how boring.
Hideous day today. I can't stand rain, heavy at times. So, I am distracting myself by going back to bed, going to the health club and now the library. Due to the going back to bed part, I did not have time to visit three people in the nursing home. I swear to get to that THIS WEEK. At least one day a week, I have trouble getting up and doing and out of the house (working was good for something). Guess it is OK if it is just once a week.
Finished a book on the Nook which I borrowed from the Overdrive program. It is a rather strange twist on the travel book. Amy Elizabeth Smith went to six Latin American countries and had book groups to discuss Jane Austen. The book is called All roads lead to Austen : a yearlong journey with Jane. She met a lot of people, had some adventures, met some romantic men and had some sickness. I think you would have to be very familiar with Jane Austen's books to get much out of it. I had trouble remembering the details even though I saw all of the films on PBS a couple of years ago. I was more interested in the words and foods and tourist things she discovered in the various countries. She even picks the man she wants to end up with based on Austen's character's characteristics.
