I hate skimming books for research instead of emerceing myself in every detail and digesting them slowly.
I hate passing books that look interesting in the bookstore without even reading the back.
I hate returning books to the library unopened to avoid late fees.
I hate turning in work I know could be better if I'd had another day to edit.
I hate only reading two or three blogs before I realize I have to be somewhere.
I hate sitting down in front of the computer and, instead of getting lost in the words wiggling out of my fingers, keeping my eyes on the clock and panicing when I see how low my word count is.
I hate only giving a sentence or two of commentary instead of anylizing line by line.
It may be time for me to do less in order for me to do more.
I keep my books until I'm finished and don't worry about the fines. I figure it's my civic duty to support my library with overdue book fees!
