Well I thought it was funny

I was actually reading the book Saturday afternoon. No, no, that isn't the funny part. Anyways, I like reading either with music playing the background or with the TV on. If I read in silence my mind tends to wander. Saturday I had the TV on in the background, and I wasn't really paying attention to what was on. Eventually I did notice, and it was...Cops. I don't know why but that made me laugh. Could there have been two more cultural opposites? Now don't get me wrong I will watch Cops if I happen to see it on. I think it is pretty damn funny show. So, yeah, that is what I thought was funny.

Don't do what I did

I basically hadn't picked up the book for about a month. When I did though...man! I didn't know what the hell I was reading. It could have been written in Spanish and I would have understood just as much as I did. Once I turned it upside down I was better.

I did go back to what I remembered and restarted from there. I was just sitting there blinking at the pages for a while though.

My security blanket

Well in anticipation of our journey I had to pull out my most trusted companion on such a trip. My beloved "A" number one bookmark:




I pulled this sucker out of the book I was reading, and deposited it in its rightful place: between the covers of Ulysses. I bought this at a book fair in elementary school in 6th grade. It has taken whatever a teenage boy could throw at it and then some. With my trusty bookmark...well not at my side, but along for the trip. I will not fail! Or just less likely to.
