The end is drawing nigh. I've got approximately 6 books left to read as well as about 11 essays; however, I've got an inch of essays on my desk with notes on them that I need to follow-up on, so I may be adding a few more items to the list. Nevertheless, I can see the light at the end of the reading tunnel.

I doubt I'll finish by the end of September exactly. Maybe by the end of the week that starts on Monday, September 28 -- that is, by the week ending Sunday, October 3...we'll see. Stay tuned.
