ok ok im writing already

It's been a loooooong time since the nomad fired up the ol blog so it's about time to get back at it. One of the reasons I started this blog is to keep a list of what I've read this year. I'm in a reading contest that I have no doubt of losing yet just being in the contest makes me feel somehow more intelligent. At least more intelligent than my fantasy football team makes me feel, which would be like a loser. Anyway back to the point. The following link is the reading contest I'm keeping track for. If you'd like to join in please do. I enjoy this guys blog he writes for the Oregonian and does a good job as a muckracker and I think a closeted christian. His reading contest started as a way to get his kids to read, he would pay them by the page for any pages they read above what he did.

The winner last year goes to the same university that I graduated from George Fox. She read 555 books, over 180,000 pages. I haven't added up mine yet but i'm not sure iv even broken 10,000. But hey it's my first year. Which reminds me I need to go read.

Good to see you out here again. A suggestion for your book contest... Leaving Ruin by Jeff Berryman. I just finished it and I loved it. So easy to relate to.
