I will be picking this up for sure in January. I was on a good pace earlier this year but grad school and some other shit got in the way. I've been struggling to read lately.

10/13/2014 9:35:52 PM

Ditto.

I've got no cable TV here in Hawaii and I'm trying to occupy my time with self improvement rather than piss it away online. Exercise, reading, learning guitar, and doing jiu jitsu are going to be my primary focuses for 2015.

BREAKING NEWS: I don't read books nearly as often as I read the newspaper or the scrolling text at the bottom of the screen.

THIS JUST IN: I don't think it affects my literary style at all.

COMING SOON: Books may be overrated.

12/15/2014 7:14:50 PM

I hate how people who read books keep records of books and pages read. You don't see me bragging about how many Seinfeld reruns I've watched.
