Edit: No, not "depressed". Avendesora Send a noteboard - 22/12/2010 02:38:22 PM
I sometimes feel inadequate whenever I compare my accomplishments in anything with the accomplishments of others. I read 11 books this year, but they were all about autism spectrum disorders. I don't have a lot of spare time for reading for fun. Plus, I like to other things with my time. I tend to forget that some of the people at this site read TONS more than the average person. When I remember that, it doesn't bother me so much. ;)

To be honest, if I had the choice between reading nonfiction or watch a documentary, I'd rather watch the show. *shrug*
*MySmiley*

I believe all news and research that supports my opinion, and dismiss the rest as conspiracy and lies.

Probably. It just seems like a shame that you'd figure you like him, and yet don't. Legolas - 18/12/2010 03:44:20 PM 830 Views

That's a good way of looking at it... a filter to steer people towards the books worth their while. Legolas - 17/12/2010 09:11:34 PM 773 Views
And you get a big star in my book for the Druon books. Tom - 18/12/2010 04:52:42 AM 774 Views
