My chatbot, Ms. Know Nothing, is a bit of a mess and I haven't had the time to continue working on "her". Meanwhile, I have still yet to pick up any knitting or work on any number of my craft projects. I haven't been in my craft room for who knows how long. It may be covered with dust, for all I know.
I've got yet another new obsession and his name is Marcel Proust. What have I gotten myself into? I've picked up "In Search of Lost Time" many times, back to when it was still called "Remembrance of Things Past" and given up in humiliation. This is the longest book ever written in which there is the longest sentence ever written. And with my memory, this is a big problem, for with those really long sentences, well, I forget what they are about somewhere halfway through (or even less). Still, I'm intrigued. I always have been.
I just finished reading Alain De Botton's "How Proust Can Change Your Life".What a wonderful introduction to the world of Proust. De Botton himself is an excellent and very funny writer.
