I don't normally use LJ for scheduling purposes, but it is my birthday (was my birthday...err...yesterday) so I feel entitled to break some personal rules
( Read more... )
Happy Birthday (belatedly)! Normally, we'd love to join you to go swill fancy wine, but we'll be off hiking in the mountains of British Columbia on Saturday. (which reminds me, got more book recommendations for me? you're usually pretty spot on for my tastes).
I finished Haruki Murikami's Kafka on the Shore a few weeks ago and I have nothing but good things to say about it. I also have gotten my grubby little paws on the English translation of Nightwatch by Sergei Lukyanenko, if Russian vampire stories are more your speed. Both books are engrossing, but not so dense that you have to put them down after a couple of hours, which what I look for in airplane reading.
My birthday's proximity to That Thing on the Playa often cuts into birthday attendance. This is just one more reason that my birthday will expand and grow until it consumes all of August - it may even take a bite out of September. I will be sad to miss so many of my friends. I will be sure to pour some Syrrah on the ground for my homies.
