It’s no secret that I am a reader.  I love to read.  I go through slumps when I don’t read much and I also go through periods that I can’t read enough.  Right now, I can’t read enough. I really should...

I don’t make up these gerbil stories.  Sometimes, I wish I did… Last night, my oldest daughter wakes me up at 4:35 AM (yes, I looked at the clock) with a gerbil in her hands.  She is mad.  And,...
