Good morning

Even if it’s Thursday, it’s the last day o work for this week. Tomorrow we have a free day.
I just can’t wait for this day to pass. It means we’re gonna have another three day weekend, and that’s just great. As Johnny said we might be going to the circus to see a seal show, but I’m not sure we’re gonna on Saturday. On Saturday we might end up going to the country side again. Which reminds me that I completely forgot to post the pictures from last time we went at the country side.
Anyway, we don’t know for sure so we won’t make any plans, we’ll just wait and see how things go.
I just found a really awesome book, and I just finished the first volume of it. It’s called “Musashi” by Eiji Yoshikawa. I found it at the library, and the cover just won me over. It has such a beautiful drawing (and I love pencil drawings) on the front and back cover. Even if the book it’s not in the best shape a book can be it really caught my attention. Today is the last day I can keep it, but as I said, I already finished the first volume and I’m gonna take the second and third volume with me. Maybe I’ll look around to see if I can find more books like it, even if the library doesn’t have many books.
It sucks because the main libraries here have really strict rules and, at some of them you can’t even sign up if you’re not a student or still in school (which sucks big time) and you aren’t even allowed to take the books home (cause some people forgot to bring them back). That’s why I prefer local libraries, even if they are small they don’t have such stupid rules, and with the same pass you can go take books from more then one library.
Anyway, I realised that I started reading much more now then I did in my school days. It’s much more pleasant now when there aren’t people on you back telling you what to read.
