I was doing so well and then I was ambushed by the book-swap bookshelf at my local supermarket. Still, it could be worse, at least I am still on the mountain. I could have been pot-holing right now because I'd picked up more books than I'd read so far this year..

I finally made it! Although if only I could stop picking up new books I could have been well up Mont Blanc by now. I am avoiding the book-swap bookshelf at my local Supermarket like the plague now. Here's hoping I'll scale Pike's Peak more quickly than Mt. Wychproof.
