Read-a-Thon: Update


Well, this day hasn't gone the way I planned.

After an extended break for lunch and a little book shopping, I returned and read two short stories in The New Weird and The New York Stories of Edith Wharton. However, yesterday my cat scratched me (yes, again) and I had to take another break to go to the hospital to get the scratches checked out, and get some antibiotics. But I'm home now, and recommencing the read-a-thon.

I'll update again in a few hours. Happy reading!

  13. In a Story Book

    At night when sunshine goes away,
    And it's too dark for me to play,
    I like to come inside, and look
    For new friends in a story book.
