As a kid, we moved every year or so. Military brat and all that. I found the one consistent thing in all locations was the public library. I learned to love the library. I would spend days lost in their books rather than struggling to make friends. Books did not reject me.

But it seems I have rejected them. I too miss my time reading. Life has a way of insisting on my attention. Oh well.

Woo hooo! Congrats on your awards!

I can't find anything to read =( It's been weeks since I finished the last good book I read.
I have started about 4 with no luck, they have all bored me to tears.

Ah, so many things I'd say on my blog if I knew for CERTAIN that Mike's mom didn't read it. She never has commented, but that doesn't mean she isn't out there spying. It'd be just like her to do that.

Books? HA! I used to inhale them. Then I went to college and HAD to read them and I've never had the same love for them.

Really wish you would've warned me about that passing out earlier.....

(I, of course, eliminated my blogroll because I couldn't take the pressure any more )

To keep from screaming, huh? Sounds like you need to manage your stress better . . .

Sorry, I couldn't help myself! Congratulations on the awards!

I had to laugh when I read your "no parenting" books comment. I went through a long phase (as you now know) where that is also all I read. It is sooooo nice to go back to reading for fun.
