In the hopes of reading at least one awesome book this month I checked out a short stack of books from the library today:

Imperfect Birds by Anne Lamott (on audio)

The Creative Habit by Twyla Tharp

The Mysterious Benedict Society by Trenton Lee Stewart

My ideal situation is usually to be listening to an audio book while reading at least one other book. We'll see how this trio works out... 

In other news, tomorrow's the 4th of July! Oh, and there's a chance for rain! A Wednesday holiday is kind of weird but a break mid-week could be perfect. I'm working on a big report at work and some time away might be just what I need to push through the rest of it on Thursday and Friday. No big plans for tomorrow except running a 4-mile race tomorrow as part of the Summer Series. Not feeling particularly fast but it's just for fun! (As I keep reminding myself.) Plus, I always like starting the day with a run. Other than that I'm loving that we have no plans; there should definitely be time for reading.

If tomorrow's a holiday for you I hope you have a restful and fun one!
