books, books, and eh

I just tried to write a post about why I don’t read as many books as I used to. The basic premise was that I just don’t have the same attention span since I’ve been a mother as I did when I was younger. Problem is, I got bored writing it. See? Lack of focus! <Sigh.> Anyway. I’ve really been trying hard to read more books. (As opposed to all the other brainless crap I do.) I’ve got a stack waiting for me to dive it. Let’s just see if I can unplug more often so I can.
Maybe that’ll be my Earth Day pledge. Turn off the TV, put the computer to sleep, and pick up a novel.

I started reading Freakonomics by Stephen Dubner and Steven Levitt about 6 months ago. Its a really good book, easy read, but I just cannot find the time!

At least your reading… I get a book, and cannot finish it in 6 months.

You should keep a book in the bathroom. That always works for me.
PS. Read Water for Elephants. Quite good.
