Sometimes I read books just so I can reassure myself that reading is still a major pastime of the general population.
Not going to deny it, I can't keep my hands off my computer for more than an hour. It's an eternal bond like that formed by superglue that keeps me coming back to watch YouTube, chat with the buds, watch YouTube, incessantly stare at my Facebook screen until somebody makes me feel loved, watch more videos until my outdoorsman spirit is crushed into a video-flavoured milkshake, etc. etc.
But books are just a whole other level of entertainment. Something your mind can make of it what it wants. The story is in place, the visuals are all up to where your imagination takes you. (YAY for being cheesy!)
I just hope that all these pages don't get drowned out by everything else that's out there. I'm really glad and proud of my circle of friends for reading, even in our early twenties when we are at our sexual primes and should be hitting on men in bars.
So anyway, reading is cool. And what that has to do with my intro post is that now you have something to read! MUAHAHA. See how smoothly I led up to that ;).
In conclusion, I'm a grandma. And grandma says crack open that book, son!
