46. Howl's Moving Castle-- Diana Wynne Jones (I had to reread this b/c I bought the 3rd one and I need to remember what happened in the first two in order to enjoy the 3rd one. I like this book a lot, though, so it wasn't a hardship to reread it. :) )

It was informative and frustrating and well-written and, well, all the things you'd expect it to be, given the subject matter. Rory Stewart is going to be the PM of Britain someday. Really intelligent, humane man.)
Mom's sick again. I don't like it when that happens.
My scrapbook is going well-- I'm up through maybe the first week of my Germany trip? There are definitely some ugly pages, but there are also a few that I really, really like. I hope I finish before UNC!
I watched a lot of Wimbledon today. Novak won handily, and Isner won the Isner-Mahut rematch, which was nice.
I need to go order pizza & pick it up now so we can eat dinner before it gets incredibly late. I hate calling places on the phone, but oh well. Maybe I'll make Paul do it. ;)
