It’s Friday. It’s late. My wife and eldest daughter are off in the hills west of the city for an overnight winter Guiding camp. My other daughter is asleep in the adjacent room, accompanied by a mountain of stuffed animals. The budgies downstairs have finally stopped chittering for the evening. The house is extremely quiet. And somewhat lonely. I may just settle back and finish reading the first Harry Potter book, which I am not ashamed to admit, I am enjoying quite a bit. Of course, I also enjoyed reading Charles Seife’s Zero: The Biography of a Dangerous Idea, the classic Zen and the Art of Resource Editing: The BMUG Guide to ResEdit, and practically every Calvin & Hobbes compilation that has ever fallen into my lap. What does that say about my predilection for a particular literary genre? Who knows. I’m just a bit of a geek I reckon.
