I cast aside the Online Shopping discount coupons from the Sunday Paper. I knelt amidst the coupons for Joann's, Hobby Lobby, and other ones I'd clipped for Shopping Online, scattered on the floor. I had found what I was looking for, the books section. Not only do I enjoy reading books, though, but I also enjoy reading about books. However, newspapers all around the country are downsizing staff, article length, and the number of printed pages. Good for trees, bad for the publishing industry.
I'm only a dozen or so pages from the end of Lady Chatterley's Lover (which I regret will be over so soon) and more than half-way done with The World According to Garp by John Irving. I still haven't finished the Murakami book, since I put it down over a month ago. Maybe when summer camp is over. The next on my list is Siddhartha by Herman Hesse. Of course, now I must read more by both Irving and Lawrence. It seems my reading life is just beginning, since the to-read list just keeps growing! Not to mention all that I need to write too!
Not much else is happening. I'm actually about to try to nap now. Ishmael is napping. Rahim is napping. I may as well take advantage of this opportunity.
