Tom Jones placeholder

Sorry for the lack of posts. Not only did we very suddenly move across the country with just a couple weeks' notice, I had to return all my library books to do that! So I've mostly been reading The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling, in short bursts between packing and all the other crazy stuff I had to do to get out here. Now that I'm settled, I'll have to get a library card soon and finish it. So far, it's really pretty entertaining-funny but in an old-fashioned way (shocking, I know). Here's where I stopped: Book 8, chapter 9, the very beginning (page 384 of the edition I had).

Also, I'd just like to say that because of this book my husband now frequently walks around the house humming "It's Not Unusual." Too funny. =)
