Still not reading.
Sep. 30th, 2004 02:01 pm2 things:
1. The not reading thing, while not fun, has been interesting, and I think I'm starting to understand the point that's trying be made here, except that,
a. during the week I do most of my reading during work hours or on the transit, and so I can't really replace that reading with anything else creative. I can't start dancing on the subway in rush hour; there's just no room. And I'm already on the internet all day at work for actual work reasons (I work for a media outlet, for pete's sake), so it's not like I'm stopping the flow of information just by not reading my flist, which leads to...
b. not reading LJ is killing me. I feel very out of the loop, and like everyone is going to ignore me in retaliation when I come back. I'm sorry! I'll never go away again! Luckily I still have no computer at home and I'm in training all day tomorrow, and I can start reading again on Saturday, because I kind of suck at staying away - I keep quickly checking various people's journals, because, you know, I'm just sitting here (see point a), all of which brings me to...
2. I'm definitely going to have to start watching Lost at its proper time, rather than taping it, because OMG *flist explosion*. So yeah. It's a good thing I'm not actually reading anything today, mostly for real, because that'd be too many cut tags to resist.
