• And, some egg books: The Big Over Easy by Jasper Fforde

I think I have read maybe one from this list.

This was also Passover for those of the Jewish faith. This reminds me that I missed watching The Ten Commandments last night. That is an annual to-do. Love the melodramatic acting. "So let it written. So let it done." Ah, lovely.

I finished reading FALSE TESTIMONY by Rose Connors. A soft legal read with which to cleanse the palatte. Also, I don't think I commented on THIS IS NOT A GAME by Walter Jon Williams. It was a nice thriller to read about the online gaming world meshing with real world situations. I enjoyed it even though I saw some things coming.

Next, I think I'll be sticking with the next in series for me by Bernard Knight. I do have a couple 14-day books from the library and of course many others to read but I think a historical mystery right now sounds satisfying.

We will be having a mostly relaxing day today since Steve was so busy yesterday. We're having dinner at my parents so I don't have to come up with something. I'll be watching the third of five parts of Little Dorrit tonight on Masterpiece Theater.

Today's Blog/Website is a bit of fun: aM laboratory has a sound wave kind of program with which to play found at http://lab.andre-michelle.com/tonematrix. Kinda fun.
