I haven't read a Vonnegut book in years. At least 10. But that's what got me started at around age 17 with the obsessive reading. Now, at almost 32, I haven't gone without a book in progress for more than a couple days, no matter how busy by life got. If I don't have a book going, it plagues me. I worry about what I'm going to read next.
I decided today that I wanted to start logging my reading. I doubt I'll have time to actually blog, a log will have to do. But I want to have a record of that which makes me so thankful that we have a much more beautiful and complex way of communicating than a series of farting and tap dancing. RIP, Mr. Vonnegut and Long Live Kilgore Trout!

Nicole,
ReplyDeleteBest of luck in this blog. It's tougher than it appears... There's a great site called GOODREADS that is a nice place to share "what's on your shelf" as far as reading is concerned. Yes, it's a little bit of a social networking site, but requires far less maintenance.
Yeah. We wouldn't want to be hit with a golf club. Remember when we got all those old copies of Vonnegut books and split them up? That was a good day.
ReplyDeleteTQ - you are obviously my new best-blog-friend! Thanks for checking this out. I hope it's not boring, and I hope my grammar isn't too terrible. I hate proofreading.
ReplyDeleteLaine - death by golf club is the worst. And, yes, that Vonnegut splitting day was great. You were very generous in sharing your books with me, the best gift a person can give me! How old were we? Still in high school?
