It is Friday the 29th of November!
If I can get this published and manage to remember to post again tomorrow I will have successfully completed another insignificant goal of posting daily in the long forgotten National Blog Posting Month (NaBloPoMo).
It is Black Friday in the US -- the unofficial beginning to the Christmas shopping season. Today is the day that many of those that have declared the gloom and doom of the American economy and couldn't afford to buy a dozen eggs at the beginning of the month will spend millions of dollars on those people that have managed to make their "nice" list.
It's also the busiest travel weekend of the year, which is odd in such a terrible economy.
No travel nor shopping for me today. I do plan to venture out into public to visit the library and check out a book or two. I just finished an 11 book fantasy series, The Realm of False Gods by Steve Higgs. It was free with my Kindle Unlimited subscription.
I have several other books in my Kindle library, but think I'll go for an old school, actual book for a change.
Some interesting stats:
54% of adult Americans read at least one book last year.
If you read 5 books, you are in the top 33%.
If you read 10 books, you are in the top 21%.
If you managed to read 50 books, you are in the top 1%, reading more than 99% of all American adults.
What are you reading?
