I have a bad habit...

I keep saying yes to things. Sometimes before I hear what they are, often before I fully consider the consequences. A couple of weeks ago I went to a SCM gathering in Sheffield. After a fun trip getting down there in the middle of the wettest June on record (luckily before the flooding) I had a fantastic weekend, where I found my dream job and got two new geeky books (Thanks wood!). I also had this conversation with the editor of movement which went something like this :

editor : Sophs, will you do something for me?
sophs : Yes
editor : You don't know what it is yet
sophs : But I'll probably say yes anyway. What is it?
editor : Will you write an article about reading "Left Behind"?
sophs : Yeah sure.

So, at some point in the near future I'm going to be reading the series and then blogging about how it makes me feel, and editing the blog into an article. Which means I've spent ages asking everyone I know if they have any of the books (so far I have seven and eight).

I sometimes wonder why I let myself into things...
