Book-o-holics anon. response: "Hello Breezey"
me: "I have a problem. I love books. I can't get enough. Friends and family have tried to help me. But I pushed them away. Now I'm all alone in the cold, cruel world. My addiction festers. I live in a cardboard box. My car is a one wheeled skateboard cruelly abandoned near my home by some punk.... *sobs* I need help!!"
what has made poor Breezey admit to needing help coping with her addiction?
Easy. Yet another college prof has commented on her appetite for books.
"I see you in here every day with a book. I'm sorry to disturb you, but I just had to say, you must be the readingest (yes a college prof used the "word" "readingest") student on campus. Do you mind if I ask what you're reading?"
I was kinda scared normally I don't get pats on the back from the sixty something old dude profs on campus. It was kinda cool though. Someone thinks it's good that I'm reading... Now I know I have a problem. I am seeking help. I need a new, bigger library!! (lolz)

Lol!
Haha, readingist... I hope he wasn't an English prof.
Sadly he is right. And you need another hobby. All you do is read and sleep. Sheesh! :)
If reading and sleeping to the exclusion of everything else was an option for me it is what I would be doing. lol
Jen. I think he's a psych prof so....
Liz you need a new hobby rodeo and cows. Such a sad existence.
Mom, have I told you today that you're the greatest?
Oh, you and my son are twins. All he does is read. He gets like 5-6-10 books from the library every week. He even reads when i drive. If he's in the from with me I'll even yell at him to stop!! like i'm going to somehow get car sick from him reading.
Lisa, that sounds so familiar! I've read in the car too (now I just sleep and read when I can really enjoy it!). My mom used to yell at me too. Good luck with your son!
