Sex & Shenanigans

Let me rephrase that …. Love physical books. Love the feel of them. The smell of them… the vivid real of them.

I hate the hand cramp from holding them.
I hate the weird way the spine makes it kind of hard to read and you don’t wanna pull it apart too hard or it breaks..
I hate how you have to physically GO to a place to get a new one if the one you’re reading isn’t good or you finished it.
I hate that it isn’t instantly accessible anytime I pick up my phone if I’m suddenly in a situation where I need to kill some time and reading is far preferable to going on Facebook or Instagram.

I get it. I still prefer physical books. But I have no room. And hate hitting myself in the face when I inevitably fall asleep reading.

I have so much lower reading comprehension and retention reading digitally. I have it, it’s not like I don’t have any, but I get way more out of a physical book than a digital one
 
I’m not sure how I feel about this. On the one hand, I’m glad you’re doing the eggs correctly. On the other, the commitment to efficiency might be a tad over the top. Is your fridge tiny? So small that the space of half an egg carton is important? What can you fit in that space? Cheese? Granted, cheese is important. I do love cheese. Mmm, now I want an omelette with cheese and onion. Maybe some gravy and hash browns. Where’s an awful waffle when you really need one?
My fridge is large and always full as if I’m about to serve Christmas dinner. And I never have less than ten types of cheese 😂

And there are hash browns and waffles in the freezer. Plus maple sausage, bacon, and honey ham.

The search feature on Kindle apps is so clutch though

My phone hit me in the face when I fell asleep reading until I discovered the phone/tabletholderarmthingythatattachestoyourbed™️ (not sponsored)
Those are great for naked video chat playtime too 🤭

All of this. It’s orders of magnitude easier for me to fall through the hole in the story and live there when I have a physical book in my hands versus a screen.

I hate that last one too.
But the rest of them, naw.
I’ve never gotten a hand cramp.
Worn books with the spine cracked speak to me. They’re worn. They’ve got mileage. Hands have opened them, held them, devoured the stories inside. They whisper to me to pick them up and see if their story is worth exploring.
I love going to those physical places. When I was young it was the library and Scholastic Book Fairs at school.
Now, I could lose whole days in B&N if I had the opportunity.
They force me to put my phone down and focus. I’m grateful for that. It’s why I always have books with me when I travel, even if reading isn’t on the agenda…you never know ❤️
