Suddenly, my reader was empty! I had nothing to read!! Total panic, just for a moment. Then I remembered the hundreds of books on my computer that I could re-read. But instead, I went and bought some new ones. I don't really expect to ever be without reading material ever again.
I just found it was funny how my brain clenched and stomach seized for a moment at the thought of having nothing to read. 
PS: IMnotsohumbleO, the Hugos this year are mostly drab and depressing. Sign of the times, I suppose, with the wars and economy and such. But there were a few sparkling gems among the darker stories. |
You know.... paper is
still available most everywhere.
BTW I read a lot of that p-stuff these days. Not that bad. Reaching fer the button to turn pages is though...
