my father is too old and to ornery to learn anything new, and since he went blind (cataracts, glaucoma, MD) audiobooks have been his only comfort…

I’ve been sitting at 90% on the entire Captain Aubrey–Steven Maturin series for months; we went to the beach this week and when I came back all 20 books were sitting at 100%

thank you a majillion times you filthy bastard whomever ye are…!

It’s a Christmas Miracle…!
