Sorting It Out
Jul. 4th, 2020 11:48 pmWe grilled some bratwurst and made some sweet corn for dinner today; then watched fireworks on TV. It seemed appropriate for the day.
Meanwhile, for the first time in a *very* long time, I was not on deadline for some project that had to be completed by a fixed date. And this meant that I could embark on making a big mess.
A bit over two years ago, I fell off the wagon reading my comic books here at home. This was partly because I *also* fell off the wagon of sorting the series into order so they could actually be *read* in order, which is a pretty useful thing given the nature of modern comic book story telling. And if you can't figure out where you left off, you can't start again.
Today, Gretchen cleared off the dining room table, and I piled up all of the unread, unsorted comic books into similar groups. There were about eleven enormous piles on the table at one point.
There is one pile left to be fine sorted. But that is enough for today.
I think I will finish "Doomsday Clock" now.
