Mosquito bites and dirty toenails
Finals are almost over. They weren't hard. But I am glad to have a rest from the mind-numbing world of nursing (school).
I need to feel smart again. I feel like the work I am doing now is so specific, so one-dimensional, so compartmentalized. I miss reading. I haven't read for fun in quite a while. Actually, come to think of it, I haven't read anything this semester and thought, wow, I am truly glad I read this, I feel like a more intellectual person. Bah.
This summer I hope to feed my right brain a little. I would like to get some real reading accomplished. I've looked up a few good books on the times best seller list. Its odd that I'm drawn now more and more to nonfiction. And I want to begin reading (good) magazines again. Unfortunately the Christmas and Birthday suggestions of New Yorker and National Geographic subscriptions were overlooked. Ah well. Maybe I'll pony up the 50 dollars. Also, I need to work on some paintings for my house. My walls are lonely. I am however absent of any ideas. Suggestions are welcome. So are donations for my subscriptions.
