Ides of March (ice on my sidewalk)

Well March has rolled in. Not sure if it's lion or lamblike. See it's been warm but we got an inch of ice. I guess though it hasn't been bad which means that we're gonna get it in a couple weeks eh? Life's been ok. Fealt a little beat down but taken great solace in the sagas of Miles Vorkosigan especially his post Dendarii days. Dad has a lot of the later books which I don't owing to my reading from his collection and not acquiring them myself meaning my re-reading is limited except for fortuitous weekends (such as this past one) when I am home. I plowed through Memory in about a day and it provides poignant remindor of how much Miles life has changed especially when the next book I have is A Civil Campaign.

It has been a nice retreat out of the doldrums although I do not have any permament escape unlike the half-sized hero of the above sagas. Just have to tough it out. I really miss having some greater goal to work towards though. In the meantime I do have some book keeping I should get to. Tomorrow as now it is time to sleep!
