No, I don't have a fascination for colourful little bricks, those little ones that make people go "Everything is Awesome!". What I do have a fascination for is instead the written word. And that manifests itself in a number of pleasant and not so pleasant ways. Case in point:
I may not be a BIBLIOBIBULI as yet (honestly, is there actually such a thing as reading to much?), but I'm very much a BIBLIOPHAGIST, literally a devourer of books. I read, therefore I am. Lego, ergo sum.
- I spend most of my waking hours at home in bed. Yes, waking hours. Yes, with a book.
- My worst work time distraction goes by the name of GoodReads, not Facebook.
- Did I mention that I have nothing to add to the discussion when people talk about Jon Snow?
- I spend way more time and energy in making sure that my book's photo on Instagram than I ever did with my selfies. It has to be just the right shade of arty plus cool you see.
- Thinking about where in the house to put up more shelves is one of the top things I daydream about.
- The thing that scares me most nowadays about moving to a new city is that we might be able to make enough space there for our books.
- I sometimes seriously consider taking a sabbatical from work, just to catch up on my reading.
