Background info: 1 – Our morning routine is such that after the alarm goes off and a couple of snoozes are hit, gets up and goes downstairs to get cereal. I stay in bed a bit more, then get up and go into the computer room. Usually, Rob's there before me, munching on his breakfast. 2 – I'm playing Animal Crossing. In this game, you can buy/find stationery to send letters to other NPC's and other players. My town has four players – named Jen, Rob, Lisa, and Jeff. I'm the only one playing this game, I have the four…

Finally. :) Apparently I'm on Madcow, subcluster 9.

This is one of those lame “I'm still here!” posts. :) This past week and a half have been just nuts, and I haven't had the energy to post, or I haven't had much to say. Or at least, not enough to say to actually make a post. Which is a silly excuse, really, but there you go. :) Let's see – we've been working late pretty much every night.

Also, I&apos;m not going to count anything I read last year – I&apos;m not going to eliminate re-reads, but I&apos;m going to try not to read anything I read last year. Except for Harry Potter. Gotta re-read those when Half-Prince comes out! Anyway, here is the very first book I&apos;ve read in 2005! 001. The Warlord of Mars – Edgar Rice Burroughs (01/02) – Sci-fi/fantasy. Dated,…

Well. I didn&apos;t quite make it to 125 books – I spent too much time playing with my new Palm. Click here for the last of my 2004 list! 113. Pyramid Scheme – Dave Freer & Eric Flint (10/26/2004) Oh, this was funny. You&apos;ve got an alien artifact abducting people and throwing them into a jumbled up ancient mythological world. 114. Digital Fortress – Dan Brown (10/31/2004) This book was pretty good. At first I was afraid I&apos;d be rooting for the bad guys in this one, but it all worked out all right. 115. H is for Homicide –…
