I have culled my list from from various half formed whimsies, vaguely authoritative texts, the subtle canvassing and drunken interrogation, of patient and accomodating friends.

The books below represent a good chunk of the novels I have always wanted to read but, for one reason or another, have never gotten around to. [...] [...] On to the material.

Yes. I had to do the math just now to figure that one out. Sigh. There’s nothing like somebody else’s lamentations … to make you feel old. 34 this year. Yes.

You are right, thirty is not that bad at all and I'm blatantly fishing for undeserved sympathy. Also I needed an excuse as to why I had not been posting much and a mid life crisis was more interesting than just being really, really busy. Judging by the last three comments 33/34 is when I have to start worrying. Hi Ann, welcome to the site. You are right, thirty is not that bad at all and I’m blatantly fishing for undeserved sympathy.

I really embraced turning 30. My teenage years were hellish, college wasn't all that much better, I was fat until I was about 29. So yeah, 30 was sort of a welcome relief. It's only 4 years later that I'm starting to have a sort of mid-life crisis - feeling like I should have accomplished more by now than I have. Thirty is really not all that bad.

I'll never sleep now. Brian, glad to hear you kept your denial up until your crucifixion year.

Glad to see you got GoogleDocs to work; I'm still having trouble with it. Bastards. Thirty was fairly weird for me, and I only accepted the fact that I was in my thirties when I turned 33.
