Good grief, that's a lot of books. I seem to have slowed down in recent years, though. I had a lot more time to read when I was younger....

This will be my first week without therapy jewelry class. No classes for me this summer, because of upcoming carpal tunnel surgery and--hopefully--a new place to live. (Actually, my new 'job' is getting my flabby butt in shape. I have a meeting with a personal trainer at the Y this week.)  Maybe I'll be able to take a hot glass shaping class at UT Informal later this summer.

I saw Speed Racer yesterday. It's really a lot better than the reviews make it out to be. It's obvious that the Wachowski brothers are huge fans, and the script is pretty good. I loved the art direction--shiny--and the actors are all having a good time.
