Read

I'm searching for a book. My favorite book is Pride & Prejudice by Jane Austen. When the A&E movie first came out my husband ordered the movie and companion book for me. I have, however, lost the book that goes with the movie. I'm incredibly bummed and have been unable to locate a copy of this particular printing of the book. I've seen people advertise their book using the picture of this edition, but, disappointingly, the book never turns out to be the A&E companion book. Arrrrggg!

I have a reading addiction. I love to read. And I have a reading disability. It's called Cantputitdown syndrome. It is nothing for me to stay up all night reading a book because I can't put it down. Yep, reading makes me sleepy alright. Sleepy the next day from staying up too late reading.

Books come to life for me. Often times I can't remember if I saw a movie of something or if I just read the book. I see books in my head so vividly that later I can't distinguish between whether I've just read about it or if I actually saw it. Does that make sense? In some ways it's kinda nice. I've seen the first six Harry Potter movies though Hollywood has only produced 4 of them. My Where The Red Fern Grows is way better than the tv edition. Oddly, it's not restricted to fiction either. I often don't know if the information I'm recalling came from Dateline and 60 minutes or Reader's Digest. The drawback is when I'm searching and searching and searching for a movie that I want to watch again which I will never find because the film only played in my head. Does this happen to anyone else?
