Sunday Salon: Monday Check-In

Posted on 05:00 by Guy
Time Sunday evening

Place In the living room, on the couch, watching a Simpsons rerun and typing on the iPad

Eating Done eating for the night--had a very good chicken-salad sandwich from Togo's for dinner

Drinking Just water

Reading An October memoir I'll be reviewing for Shelf Awareness, and trying to figure out if I'll be able to work in a Banned Books Week read next week--I'd like to, but I probably should have started planning for it a little earlier!

Watching We just finished watching Star Trek Into Darkness on DVD (I saw it in theaters either three or four times this summer--I forget exactly), and we are gearing up for non-rerun season to start next week!

Listening I should finish Diane Keaton's memoir Then Again on Audible in another day or so, and am trying to decide what will follow that one. But with the new TV season about to get underway, I may be forsaking audiobooks for podcasts, including the new Agents of Zeitgeist on Blog Talk Radio--I know two of the three hosts personally, and that's kind of exciting.

Pondering / Blogging Last week I considered three reasons why I (still) blog , and later this week I'll be considering censorship as one of the participant's in Sheila's "Reading to Beat the Banned" pre-Banned Books Week blogfest

Promoting I have 2 invites (sorry, only 2) available for Oyster, the newly-launched “Netflix for ebooks”
app
with a selection of over 100,000 ebook titles (and growing every day!). I’ll invite the first two people who contact me at 3.rsblog AT Gmail DOT com to request it--if you have an iPhone or iPod touch and think a monthly payment of $9.95 to download unlimited reads sounds like a good deal, email me now! (And if you don’t get one of my invites, request your own from Oyster--I only waited a few days to get mine.)

Gratuitous Photo of the Week: Another look at the bookshelves!

Hope your week is starting out well--and if not, Monday will be over soon!
