QotD: Midway Through
What's one thing that you hope to do or accomplish before the end of this year?
One thing I will definitely do is read at least one book each month in 2006. Considering how much I love to read, this goal kind of depresses me. Think about it: 12 books a year, and maybe I'll live another 50 years if I'm lucky. That's only 600 books left to read before I die! If I want to read all the good books ever written, I'd better pick up the pace.
So far the goal has served me well, probably because it's specific and attainable. I've read up to three books each month and tagged them all "bookamonth" in this here blog, if anyone wants to read along with me.

I feel the same way. I hardly get to read as much as I want to, but I do want to. And 12 books a year doesn't seem anywhere near enough to feed the soul. But it's good to have the goal and then outdo yourself. Lather, rinse, repeat!
