All right, I confess it. I'm enjoying watching the Olympics.
Tomorrow off work as well; I have a few things I want to do in town, but otherwise it will be another lazy day. I've been very lazy. It's been great.

Il en est des livres comme du feu de nos foyers; on va prendre ce feu chez son voisin, on l’allume chez soi, on le communique à d’autres, et il appartient à tous.
What we find in books is like the fire in our hearths. We fetch it from our neighbor's, we kindle it at home, we communicate it to others, and it becomes the property of all.
-- Voltaire, "Lettre XII: sur M. Pope et quelques autres poètes fameux," Lettres philosophiques' (1733)
