Eleven
Saturday, January 1st, 20111. Floss.
No, wait. That was last year.
Instead of resolutions this year, I decided to list eleven books I want to read during 2011. This isn’t in any particular order (or any type of organizational system at all, really).
I’m feeling the need to spend more quality time with my books. As much as I love the Internet, I feel that my brain has become too easily distractable, if not a little mooshy around the edges.
