I'm all about the nonfiction. It's a little dorky, but so very true.

I do alot of reading on the train into and out of the city. During these short, 20 minute, sections, I am currently reading René Descartes' "Meditations regarding the first philosophy." (Meditationes de prima philosophia) and have just finished Gottfried Wilhelm Liebnitz' "Theodicy: Essays on the Goodness of God, the Freedom of Man, and the Origin of Evil."

I've also picked up a few old (1810s) Ancient Greek textbooks for junior high students. I've been working through that in the evenings with a glass of wine at hand.

Well, I've just proven how big a nerd I am. Who else will admit their current addictions?
