I'm going on a roadtrip next week. Oddly enough, that seems to be the times I get the most reading done. Books on tape are heavenly. My mother got me hooked, and I'm planning a special trip into town tomorrow to pick out some good ones for the 40 hours or so next week I'll be spending in a car.

Unlike those roadtrips I used to take in college, this one's going to include a couple of kids - my niece and nephew to be exact. It's been a long, long time since I traveled long distances with kids in the back seat.

Books: I don't know why this chapter is fighting me so much. Maybe I just don't have the world sketched out well enough. Time to break out my pencils and.... well, maybe I'll do it in photoshop instead.
