This week I finally finished Don Quixote. All 940 pages. The book could have been equally good at 340 pages, but overall I felt it was worth reading. The character and I have bonded - both of us living a life of blissful imagination. I found this little wooden figurine in the back of a local artisan store.
One of the small movie houses in town hosted a tribute to Paul Newman this week, showing a different classic film every day. While I was tempted to (re)watch "The Hustler" and "Hud" - both great movies, both showcasing the wonder that was Paul Newman - I ultimately opted for "The Sting." As some of you know, I've nicknamed one of my very best friends "El Golpe" and so went to see it in honor of him...and Paul Newman.

Congratulations on finishing Don Quixote! That's an accomplishment. Someday I hope to read it....when I have a couple years of free time to get through that massive novel.
So, what book is next???
