dusty blogs and bookshelves..


I love to read. I really love to read. Now I'm not the biggest book worm in the world, I certainly couldn't keep up with Rory Gilmore, Gutterflower, Vindi, Halik or the like, but I do like me some books to keep me occupied and considered myself more than your average bookworm. I cant call myself that with a smile or even a straight face anymore. Then again, why would anyone would call themselves that with a smile or even a straight face at all.

And I mean it's seriously bad. I've gone from a book a day to a half a book in two months.  I thought maybe the goodreads challenge would spark something, Set a goal I couldn't possibly reach. 100 books this year, roughly 2 a week. Nothing. All I managed was 3 in 3 months. Woeful. Not even the nice haul I got at last years CBIF or the GLF experience in January got me starting something. Which is quite a change from a little over a year back when this little ditty came out of my noggin.

Of course whatever semblance of writing I used to has quietly vaporized as well. Only about 5% of all the posts I've written are left on this blog, rest deleted, and I haven't tried to put finger to keyboard to write something new in ages either. I suppose between the lack of reading , the abundance of academic writing and twitter.. this was bound to happen. I thought of putting something down for the RoyTho since I'm blue and gold all the way. Then I just thought I'd link to an old post I did, which turned out to be missing as well. Joy :)

Oh well.. here's to putting all that behind and starting this whole thing brand new. With some books and hopefully some better writing that you would actually enjoy. Anyway, there's one thing I can always guarantee to get a few written words out of me; an exam. Like the one's I'm supposed to have over the weekend and then again next week. Yay! That's gonna be so much fun!! So excuse me while I go back to some productive procrastination and maybe I'll be back here with something that's actually readable soon :)
