Update...

So a little over one week ago I set forth on my glorious 100 book marathon.  As of today, November 9, 2009 at 2:40 p.m. MST, I have officially read a total of 86 pages.  I am beginning to think my reading marathon is going to go the way of the 1/2 marathon I decided to "run" on a whim last year...pathetically slow. 

I just made such a big show out of the whole ordeal that I feel I can't turn back now without everyone I know saying...oh, that's just Kristen.  Remember the time she said she was going to knit that sweet sweater?  Or, remember when she had an inkling that she was the best mosaic-maker on the planet so she bought a bunch of glass and grout and never used it? (In my own defense here, that sweater was turning out to be about 4 times too large due to the fact I can't seem to figure out just how measuring tape works and my dogs ate my mosaic tiles...I'm not even joking...) I'm beginning to think that people are going to start using the phrase "pulling a Kristen" to express lack of motivation to finish projects. 

Long story short...I still, in fact, plan on finishing Don Quixote...all 900 pages left...

You can do it! And if all else fails, they probably made it into a movie...we'll never know! ;)
