I've started a lot of new projects over the last week, and have probably bitten off more than I can chew. I started a new audio course on the works of William Shakespeare, as well as the fourth book in the History of Civilization by William Durant, entitled the Age of Faith.
Of course, it just donned on me that my wife and I are pondering a trip to London, our first to the U.K., in about six weeks and I had originally intended to dive into the Oxford History of Britain by Kenneth Morgan. It's been sitting in my study for weeks in the on deck circle and I completely forgot about that.
No biggy, I will get a jump on it next week.
And although I'm enjoying the audio course on Shakespeare, I'm not sure I'm going to make it through any of his actual plays. I'm trying, but I'm just not feeling it. Why is it that I can muscle through volumes on history that would bore 99% of the reading public, but I can't make it through a single Shakespeare play?
