I read Sh*t My Dad Says. The book, not just the tweets. So, that counts. (It's really funny. There's a great narrative in it. I recommend it. You would read the entire book in about 15 minutes. Only exaggerating a little bit.)

Oh, hey, I now send nightly reports to a friend on the Matisse bio as a way of getting myself to actually finish it. I'm getting close to the end of volume one! Yay. It's a great biography, actually. Hillary Spurling. She did an incredible job of mitigating some of the myths about Matisse AND uncovering things that were simply not known or were overlooked. (Yes, I realize that having to devise motivational tricks to get oneself to read is completely foreign to you [except maybe for The Grapes of Wrath?], but I decided not to be embarrassed about it even with asuperreader like you.)

All is forgiven.

(Sorry no job yet. That must be beyond frustrating. Especially because anyone should be THRILLED to hire you. Not joking. I love Parks & Recreation. That's no joke either. Looking forward to first ladies post.)

I have a blog post in my drafts folder (about a month old) about first ladies. I keep putting it off, because I get to Abigail Adams, which makes me think of the movie John Adams, which reminds me of a quote from Parks & Recreation "Now I've got some things I want to say about Laura Linney." Then I go watch Parks & Recreation.

Also, I'm still unemployed. So that's fun.

Whoa. Did you just read like ten books in the last week?

I hope you realize that reading can poke your eye out.

Whoa, a slight to Pat Nixon, and a compliment to you all in one. You're the man.

280 pages, but there was a lot of space in between.

To be fair, Pat Nixon rambles quite a bit.

(Hopefully you know I'm just a jealous ingrate.)

Um, there have been eight days in 2010. Don't you think you're kind of slacking?
