We are Books........

I'm a reader.....and when I say a reader..I mean a reader...like if I don't have a stack of books OR my trusty Kindle, then I"m a little nervous.  I don't read for social value...do you?  Sometimes I'm embarrassed because some of my friends do read books that are deep. Me?? Not so much.  Can I tell you how darn excited I am about having a new Nora Roberts on my Kindle?  Her characters always become my best friends.  And I miss them when they are gone.  So anyway.....I"m teaching school today.....and trying my BEST not to pull my Kindle out.  Why did I take the darn thing anyway??  Hmmmm....tried to read it by casually looking in my desk....tried to read it by every now or then looking in my lap.  Tried to read it underneath a huge stack of papers I was supposed to be grading.  Those darn kids...they had questions to answer, examples to give, adjectives to figure out.  Nora, I"m sorry.  You don't pay my bills...and if I don't work...you don't sell books.  I'm a reader.
