Want to know what the most expensive hobby is?

You'd think it would be something like sky-diving, bungee-jumping or the collection of those tropical fish that cost like a trajillion dollars each. Really though - it's reading. You know, you can get 700 channels from Shaw for twenty bucks a month, but you go to a bookstore and pick up two books and you're out fifty bucks. No freaking wonder kids aren't reading, they're smart! -- I should have quit ages ago! Soon grandparents everywhere are going to be talking about books like they talk about cigarettes: You really shouldn't smoke/read you know, it's the little things, a pack/book a day will cost you a thousand dollars in no time, you really should just quit cold turkey.

Or you know, maybe its just me.

Things are going well right now, excellently well, actually. Nothing much is happening but that's okay -- all I have to complain about is the rain, and even that isn't so bad. It's weird being in Thunder Bay without Kate and Mriss, and it drives me nuts that Kate won't be here til mid-september. But, the cutie keeps sending me letters, so I can't realy figure I can complain. mm, I'm being distracted now.... people playing with my hair will do that. Gotta go!
