so do i, and i also make sure to turn towards the wall so it couldn't accidentally fall on the floor (
) but i guess it is sometimes propped too close to vertically. since it only fell onto the other pillow it's not really a problem.

i'm paranoid too, but sometimes i'm also reeeeeeaally tired, apparently.
when i first got it i almost never took it out of the house, i was afraid it would get broken in my bag. even now i am extra careful when i carry it around with me. it has a special place on the table next to my bed and i always make sure to place it screen side down, just in case one of the cats is passing by there...

Keep in mind I am retired and read a little faster than most, in Jr. High school and high school, I averaged 22-27 books per week.

wow !! i read ridiculous quantities when i was in school too but i don't think i ever managed THAT many !! maybe close, during summer break. i wish i could still read that much, but now it's nowhere near so many.
