What Kind of Year Has It Been
Sep 22nd, 2009 by Kevin in Musings and Meanderings
Life really likes throwing curve balls. It really does.
I didn’t disappear, but I have been very, very distracted lately. Almost a year after we lost my Mom, Dad had a stroke and was hospitalized. Since then, I’ve temporarily moved in with him to assist in his recovery, which is coming along amazingly well. To top everything off, my XBox 360, which is over three years old now, coughed up an E74 error and died.
The consequence though, is that it took me three weeks to read a Discworld book, which, by rights, should have been devoured in a day or so. However, things are looking up on all fronts, and we’ve moved on, so although I doubt I’ll hit fifty-two book this year, I should be able to put in a good showing.

Stay classy, man.
As a bonus, I’ve finally seen all three Godfather movies. (Dad’s a Godfather nut.)
Copolla should have stopped after Part II.

Oh, no question about it. I’m even of the (possibly heretical) opinion that II is overrated. While I like II, I really miss Brando.
The young Bobby De Niro and his story is what sold Part II for me.
