From Russia, with too many names to keep straight....

Last Thursday, which would have been June 10, I started reading Doctor Zhivago by Boris Pasternak. Almost a week later, and I'm just barely a hundred pages into it. It's been a slow start, obviously. Part of the reason for that is an onslaught of characters, and trying to keep them all straight has been a bit taxing so far. I imagine it's going to take me a while to work through it, as it's well over four hundred pages in length.

You'll notice that I've more or less titled this blog entry. Hopefully that will be a trend of sorts, as Blogger has added some features that don't work so well if you don't title your entries. Once I get more than ten titled entries, I may try that feature. In fact, I'm contemplating a whole website redesign in general, but not sure I'm going to have the time for it. Since Maryanne and I bought a house, we've got a lot of things we want to do with it, and since the summer weather is good for a lot of outdoor work, a lot of other things will be put on hold.
