I come from the land of the ice and snow

I feel bad about not writing more this semester, but things are quite busy. Not much to report in the way of updates as the things I'm busy with are pretty dull admin type things. I don't see that changing any time soon, so perhaps I'll have to try harder to see the amusing bits in the very, very mundane.

I have read some interesting novels in the past little while that I quite liked. The novels of Ron Hansen, who wrote The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, continue to impress me. I read Hitler's Niece over the holidays and am about half way through Margerite in Ecstacy.
