Today is the first day of the quarter and the school year here at UW. I, however, don't have classes till tomorrow. I'm not very excited for this year, but I still hope it will be good. Anyway, my friend Megan has posted this Beginning of Semester Inventory survey previously, and I thought I would steal it.

I just checked out Rebecca from the library on Saturday, and am SO excited to start it. Hooray!!
ReplyDeleteGreg, I love it! I'm so glad that you're enjoying life in Seattle. Plus nothing like watching hours of Gilmores! Love that show. ;)
ReplyDeleteP.S. we all need to get together if you're coming in December!
ReplyDeleteI'm taking a film class this semester (all films from 1939 and from the 30s in general) and can recommend more Westerns. Also, "Gunfighter Nation" by Slotkin is a worthy supplementary read.
ReplyDeleteNice inventory. I feel like I'm ALWAYS doing inventory. Hard to relegate it to a season or reason.
