and then maybe go swimming. in Lake Michigan. and write a love letter to the Forestry Service.

I don't really like taking baths, although now that I type that I can't remember the last time I did, so maybe it's one of the many things I'll someday discover I've grown into liking along with the taste of mint and driving with the windows down.

Anyway: I don't take baths recreationally, and I definitely don't read in the bath, because OMG THE BOOK MIGHT GET WET. It's just not a relaxing frame of mind.

That said, at 61 pages into Under a Flaming Sky, The Great Hinckley Firestorm of 1894, I am thinking that submerged in water might be the only way I can finish this book.


Dear Everyone, No Matter How Much You Might Have Irritated Me At Any Time,

Please DO NOT die in a fire.

kthx,
dira

Oh, man, I haven't read the book but I totally found myself singing Cold Missouri Waters as I read this one. I'll have to check that out when I'm ready to cope with another book about fire. :)
