Nookage

So it's done.  I've done it.  The process has been completed.

I own an e-Reader.

I know I said I'd never get one.  I know I said it was the literal death of the written word.  I know I vowed that until the day I died I would read no book that wasn't neatly bundled in pages!  But I did it.  And I don't regret it.

My Nook.

The thing is I just don't read enough.  Who can with the instant gratification of video games, sitcoms, haunted houses, family functions, and God knows what else.  But I'm an English major, dammit!  I should be reading.  I'm too far behind my brethren as it is and it's time to get caught up.  So I will read, even it it's written in e-ink.  I will read and absorb and hope my sin will not be frowned upon by the literary gods to whom I give worship.
