I have a problem,

Jun 25, 2009 10:14

Okay so I know it's silly, but my reading has gotten out of hand. I've been reading at least one book a day, if not two. Okay so this is a silly complaint. Most of everybody just tells me that reading is good, and if anything they wish they had the time to read as much as I do. But there lies my problem. I don't have the time. I work five days a week, and i still have summer classes. I have been neglecting all of my responsibilities around the house. My room is a mess. And I should really be working on my practice test for math.
But no I continue to read silly books even though there are more important things to be doing. But if i try doing these other things, I find myself thinking about what is going to happen next in the book rather than concentrating on whatever I am doing. Like last night I went to a work related party and I was very tempted to read rather than attempt polite but dull conversation with another manager's fiancee and my own. Of course the topic was nascar, so I am not surprised at my boredom. but the point is that all I think about is reading.

Maybe there is a twelve step program....  I should really stop complaining, reading is not the worst thing i could be doing. Maybe the problem is that I'm bored with my normal routine. I like taking time for myself, and I rarely do. Reading is one of the few things I enjoy doing by myself. And it does help me to escape my problems which I will not even attempt to complain about now.

It could be worse.....
