I like to read science fiction, fantasy as well as classics and comics. Always looking for recommendations. Like to play video games and board games. Love to watch old movies and shows, as I find them relaxing and entertaining. Last but not least. like to feed the birds and do some gardening.

Pecos Bill On A Sleigh Bed?

Still moving along with the medical records. Not very exciting but a job that needs to be done. At least it is very laid back here. One more week and I am sure we will finish.

Finished reading Bowl Of Heaven by Gregory Benford and Larry Niven and it was alright. Didn't find it very catching at points so my reading slowed down. As I was nearing the end I kept looking at the page count as I was eager to know what the mystery behind the Bowl was, who were the Astronomers, where they were heading and why? Well as you guessed it is part of a bigger story and there is a second book on the way. I though it was a single book. I guess now I await the next book. As promised I started the 4th book in the Dark Tower series with the Wizard And Glass by Stephen King. This one is a longer read.

The Prana sale was this weekend and I didn't go. Wish I had money to go. It is the only time in the year I go out to buy clothes. Cool clothes at great prices. Instead stayed at home as usual. Made our frequent visit to the local thrift store and you can see Natalia pictured with the giant snowman. Scored a sleigh bed but it needs some patching up and work. Snow expected on Thursday and I am ready. I doubt it will be much but enough to get the mood started.

Skyrim finally gets a good DLC released which seems more like an expansion pack. Dragonborn DLC will have me jump back in Skyrim to check this out. It is one of those games I really liked and don't want to let go. Also still haven't jumped in the Mr Torgues DLC for Borderlands 2. Not to forget Halo 4 campaign which looks good. Between the games and the many books I want to read I think I'll be good for those cold snowy winter days soon to arrive. I do wish I could catch up on comics but that can get expensive.

May sound very weird to those that know me but when I was a little boy I got in a Pecos Bill "kick" as my parents tell me. I never put down the book with vinyl record from those days (do you remember?). So here is what I am talking about.
