People who love literature have at least part of their minds immune from indoctrination. If you read, you can learn to think for yourself.

1. 50 when I got up with clouds. Sunrise isn’t until 7:46, and sunset is at 6:00. We have officially entered the “Big Dark”. The temperature hit 59 deg this afternoon before nighttime storms started.
2. I got a survey from my high school wanting to know if I wanted to have a 60th Class Reunion. Talk about feeling OLD!
3. I managed to get some reading time in this morning, and finished my current Inspector Lynley. That meant I was able to start the new Jack Reacher that I had pre-ordered last summer. I’m about five chapters into it, and it’s much better than the last one, so far.
4. McDonald’s for lunch. Quarter Pounder Deluxe for me and a Big Mac with fries for Al.
5. Al had his Senior University class about Fascism, so I waited to go to the Wellness Center while he was there. Finished off my steps for the day.
How about you? What made you happy today?
