Reading
Reading I'm a voracious reader. If i like a novel, i can finish in mebbe two days. Problem with finishing it that fast is twofold. One being that i'm always in need of a new book, which can get expensive. Secondly, i'm not likely to remember what i've read, since i've finished it so quickly. Come on, how many of you out there have bought a new book, get to mebbe page 12, or so, then realize that you've actually read it previously. All very sad. In order to minimize the expense of new books, i've taken to buying them at my local thrift store. It's generally been a good thing, except for the occasional book that's missing the last pages. Heh, that's ok. It gives me the opportunity of coming up with my own ending, right? I mean, i've always been pretty good at figuring who the bad guy is, or what the end result is, when reading a book. Actually, that probably comes from watching all those old movies with my dad. He & i would turn the sound down once & a while, then come up with our own dialog. Corny? Yep, but was always fun. Ma always dislike watching anything with us, since we generally talked thru the whole movie, and, as she used to say "why do i even watch this with you? you always tell me the end before it happens". I try to curb this behavior now, since it's apparently annoying to most folks. But never fear...it's still there lurking under my quiet demeanor. |
