Thirteenth Batch of Dewey Entries

I've been reading about parasites (YUM!), wetlands, dinosaurs, yoga, writing, the cotton gin, the philosophy of beauty, lunchboxes, and apples. Don't forget pens.  Yes, pens.  A book about pens has got to be the most boring thing in the world to read.  I'm fine with a Bic retractable in blue medium point.  The 680s are a sad Dewey section, full of guns, welding, and pen collecting.  Reading about pens seemed easier than reading about guns ... until I learned about a zillion kind of pens that some people choose to spend $1,000 each to buy. Snore.

I'm thrilled because I only have 18 holes remaining in my Dewey list.
