I read for simple pleasure...not so much to learn or expand my horizons. hmmmmm...perhaps I really should give my reading choices some thought.

I never read a story book twice, I don't care to watch a movie twice unless it's one I really want to understand better. I'm weird like that. lol...<br /> <br /> As I get older, I have a need for less stuff and I've noticed that I'm not alone to feel like that. With the computer, I can access information at the click of the mouse. <br /><br />Boys, I'm long winded...

I love to read almost more than anything else. We had no TV growing up, and I learned to love getting lost in a good book, and I still do.
