This last few weeks I have been thinking about how little I read and write anymore, and it made me rather sad, so I picked up a book and started reading. Talking As Fast As I CanMy first book of choice, Talking As Fast As I Can by Lauren Graham, aka Lorelai from Gilmore Girls.

I've lived in this house for nearly twenty years. I know it's creaks, I know it's cracks. I know precisely what every light switch does and I know which power outlets work better than others.
