Today there was a book fair at work. I went with some coworkers to browse, but was the only person who didn’t purchase anything. When one of the girls said, “I feel bad … Nicole didn’t get anything”, I replied, “Don’t worry about me. I’m just gonna get the books I was interested in at the library.” And that’s just what I did when I got home. I also picked up another book I had on hold. I am obsessed with books, people. I have been going to the library on a daily basis. Joe was looking around for a book and couldn’t decide and during those few minutes I picked up another four books. Now I just need to find the time to read these things. I usually read at lunch, but I’ve had lunch plans the past few days and I’m feeling the withdrawal kick in. I’ll probably get some good reading time in later tonight, as well as this weekend since I have to be off the computer by 8 pm so the kids can go to bed.
But for now I must work out and watch 100 Greatest Standups of All Time on Comedy Central.
I always go through stages, sometimes I’m so into reading I’ll finish a couple of books in a week, other times I won’t pick anything up for months. Right now I’m in the “that looks good so I’ll buy it, but I don’t actually feel like reading it yet” stage. At least I’ll have lots to read when I feel like it!
