It's cold outside

24 degrees F in fact. The fact that I live on a very steep hill, thus making it impossible for me to go anywhere, is greatly lessening my love affair with snow and ice.

A blessing in disguise I suppose. I have a chest-high stack of books I've been making progress through. The last books I read were Camera Lucida by Barthes, Three Men in a Boat by Jerome K. Jerome, and Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card. Mid-century semiotics to post WWII sci-fi.

I'm hoping to continue the eclecticness this weekend with The Book of Imaginary Beings by Borges and Franny and Zooey by Salinger.
