armistice day

today is veteran's day, which is a day when we honor all of our veterans. it used to be called armistice day, which was the day WWI ended. so it honored that. i remember learning that from reading breakfast of champions which is by kurt vonnegut, who is a veteran and whose birthday is november 11. i read that book all in one day. i had never, and have never since, been able to read a whole book in one day. anyway, i'm reading that book again. starting today. if it goes well, i might read this book every year on veterans day.

but i probably won't. happy armistice/veterans/birthday.
