A.) I am trying to update this more. I need an outlet and I need that connection with my old friends and old life.
B.) I am simultaneously trying to rid myself of my addiction to the internet.
C.) As a result of B., I am reading far more (I've finished 2 books in less than 48 hours and feel so refreshed and revived.)
Favorite passage from the book I was reading today:
"The light came from a flashlight held by a student from stage right.
Shepherd One: (Pointing) A star in the east.
Shepherd Two: And so bright.
Shepherd One: What does it mean?
Shepherd Two: Wish I knowed.
(Shepherd One looked at Shepherd Two as if he were about to correct his grammar, but changed his mind. No one in the audience seemed to notice.)"
--Ernest Gaines, A Lesson Before Dying, p. 148-9
So funny. And such an amazing book. Highly recommended.
