Running low on energy

So, I'm running low on energy tonight, but need to post something here. I really enjoyed reading Johnny Appleseed. I think what I enjoyed most was the illustrations. They were so representative of the time and the early American culture, and beautifully done. I would almost like to have a print of some of the pages to hang on my walls.

Goodnight Moon was not at all what I remembered it being, but it could be that the memories of that book have faded and become muddy over the years. The pictures were not as colorful as I remembered them being, and the point of view was not what I remembered. I thought that the story was told from the perspective of the mother, but now that I think about it more, I think perhaps I had blended The Runaway Bunny and Goodnight Moon together in my mind to create another story entirely! Funny thing how memory works sometimes.

Benny took the computer completely apart this weekend to fix it, so I got my reading done, but no posting. Tomorrow will be another early morning to do some grad work before going to school. I should have my Wiki's posted by early tomorrow afternoon... somehow I find that I'm always a better writer when I wait until the last minute, even though it's exactly what I tell my students not to do. I think I'm much more honest in my writing that way.

Well, it's off to bed for the night and then up at 5:00 to do some work.
