Well, it’s only been 8 days since the summer quarter started and already school has taken over my life. Besides Oedipus over the weekend, the only reading I am doing is for school. Last week we tried to pin down just exactly what a digital library is and found that there is no official definition so of course every “expert” has his or her own opinion.

I shouldn’t say school is the only reading because I get to read Rebecca on the way to and from work. I am about halfway through and enjoying it very much. For those of you who have read it, the fancy dress ball is only hours away and Mrs de Winter–do we know her name? I don’t recall ever seeing it–is giddy with the prospect of surprising everyone with her costume. Given that the costume idea came from Mrs. Danvers, the head housekeeper who isn’t the nicest of people, I’m concerned that something not good is going to happen. I will most certainly find out tomorrow morning.

I decided to cancel my TLS Kindle subscription after only a month. I read three articles in the first issue and have had no time for any others. Maybe one day when I have more free time I will subscribe again, but for now it just isn’t practical.
