Weekend Reading

What do you plan to read this weekend?

Everything counts! Whether it's a book, the Sunday paper, an article you opened in a new tab and promptly forgot about, or the labels on your washing.

I've got four glorious and much needed days off, so I'm hoping to finish re-reading Busman's Honeymoon, and catch up on social media.

I've been meaning to reread Ancillary Sword for a while and keep failing to start (not entirely sure why but suspect busy+stressed has something to do with it).

I still adore my new Hudl2 tablet and would like to read this week's Economist on it (getting back into that habit) and start on one of the many many comics I have downloaded to it.

I think I'm going to console myself WRT the two separate parties with friends I'm missing today by spending the afternoon in the garden with 'State Machine', the new Rachel Peng novel by K B Spangler, a bottle of wine, and quite possibly a pizza.

I had planned to fit uni reading in today, but instead read a long and angsty MCU fic in which Steve Rogers keeps resetting within his own timeline in the five minute breaks between housework. Tomorrow - ???

More of Jane Eyre, that Harriet and Peter essay (finally), maybe some old family letters for a project I have a mind to try, Twitter and related news links, recipes for making yogurt.

Whatever the [community profile] crowdfunding Creative Jam spawns. (Y'all should totally drop by and leave prompts on the theme of 'hope'! Give the people playing more possibilities to write about!)

And hopefully an actual book, or at least a chapter of a book. Probably The Wisdom of the Myths (if I go for book) or The Wisdom of Hypatia (if I go for chapter). Or possibly the ancient Greek self-study course's first lesson. Or maybe I'll reread snippets of Pillars of Humanity and Longing for Wisdom in order to write the next thing in my blog post series—wait no given the next topic in line maybe I should reread A Beginner's Guide to Hellenismos and then read Hellenic Polytheism: Household Worship.

I also keep clicking back to the dashboard of sunbowpublications.com in hopes of new comments. This is silly, because I have it set up to email me new comments, but still.

You understand why I never get anything done!
