What have I been reading:
As I believe I mentioned already, I was reading The Glass Castle. I didn't really enjoy it all that much - a little too depressing for my liking. But I plugged through and finished it up about 3 weeks ago.

In April, I started reading The Te of Piglet thanks to Mr. J. I own the The Tao of Pooh, and have read it on a number of occasions. I guess Mr. J thought it would be good for me to read the second book. It was enlightening, however, I didn't enjoy it as much as The Tao of Pooh.

My current reads I started a couple of weeks ago. Mr. J lent me World War Z. I have read the first chapter, but put it down because I was much too engrossed in The Walking Dead. The is my second time reading trade paperback graphic novels. My first was Fables. R:tAG started me on them during my visit last fall. I really enjoyed them, and have continued on with the series. In fact, I also just finished reading volume 8 Wolves. I highly recommend both series; The Walking Dead is fantastic. It has been a long time since I haven't been able to put down a book.

Finally, I spent some of my weekend reading old posts. I was feeling particularly interested in remembering my time in Oxford. At least that is where it started, and then I started going back even further and reading older posts. I stumbled upon this post, and remember recently talking about it at Jenn & Al's wedding. Of course I had to watch it again. So good!

What have I been working on:
I am finally about 3/4 done the baby sweater that I started way back in the fall. It is a great little sweater, and I am using some nice, soft light green yarn, however the pattern is all screwed up. I called upon The Knitting Queen back in the fall for some help, and she provided me with detailed instructions that I still reference (due to my large gaps in knitting). Initially the sweater was just a project, but since my girlfriend announced her pregnancy it has become a gift for the baby - which is due in August. I should finish it in time, no problem.

I was also planning on knitting a blanket for the baby, but we'll have to see how dedicated I am to knitting over the summer. I usually only knit in the winter, but I have been picking it up here and there when I am not too busy, which isn't very often these days.

My most recently completely project is the painting I did for Jenn & Al as their wedding gift. Of course, they didn't get it in time for me to present to them on their wedding day, but I advised Al that it would be coming shortly. I got to work early this morning and finished it off in about 3 hours. Now all it has to do is dry. Because I use oils, I like to make sure I give it plenty of time to dry. It should be in their hands at the end of June. I hope they enjoy it.

What have I been active in:
I am still going to the gym as often as I can. However, I have been fairly active practising for Corporate Challenge over the past number of weeks. On Saturday, we competed for the first time in the Bowling event. We placed 6th. On Monday and Tuesday, I will be busy competing in the Volleyball. On Saturday, we have the Slo-Pitch tournament, and the following Friday is my last event - Horseshoes. I am looking forward to the remaining events.

Everything else:
I am busy with work. I have started playing Diablo II again. My brother and his family are coming to visit this weekend, and Suzi the week after that. Life is definitely staying interesting and busy. Good times!
