Resolute


a year of good reading ahead
Originally uploaded by telfandrea.

I made the usual resolutions at the beginning of the new year. You know, the usual fitness and discipline-related goals that somehow, nine days in, I have nearly completely neglected. But one resolution will stick, come hell or high water: for the next year, I will buy no new books*. I will be content with the 1,600 books already in my house and I will frequent this thing called a library. Genius, no?

*There’s always a caveat. My resolution does not extend yard sales, thrift stores, and library book sales, just to new books, even heavily discounted, and all online purchases.

One thought on “Resolute

  1. And the year of “the asterisk” continues – now we all know the answer to the question: what do Barry Bonds and Andrea Griffith have in common? Answer: asterisk 🙂 Nobody needs to feel sorry for Andrea but if anyone does I can help with suggestions off her Amazon.com wish list that I recommended she update and prioritize to increase her chances of getting a “new” book from me periodically throughout her year of sorrow. jk. – Telfer
