Well, I’m on the board. That’s a yay. Now I just have to, you know, DO something.

Stumbling on Happiness: Daniel Gilbert
Finished 3/01
Re-read
An extremely amusing book of psychology. Gilbert is quite witty and funny in addition to being skilled at explaining complicated things in simple ways. And his voice is not the only reason to read this. It explains why most people are so bad at judging what they a) did feel like in the past and b) will feel like in the future. It is utterly fascinating.

How to Live on 24 Hours a Day: Arnold Bennett
Finished 2/27
Anrold Bennett is down on us folks who count how many books we read in a year. He makes sense in some areas, but it’s areas like that where he annoys me. I count how many books I read in a year because I’m hungry for them and I’d read that many anyway, but I also just happen to be kind of obsessive, so I enjoy counting them. Tough shit, Arnold! Get over it! lol
