and the strange things people say.
"how are you going to fit in the rest of your life?"
well, i do plan to continue to work. it helps support me in the manner to which i have become accustomed. and i still plan to travel a fair bit this year, not to mention the friends that i see weekly, if not more often. i've chosen to fit reading into my life, cramming it in. it does mean that i am watching less television, and wasting less moments. but since i always have a book with me anyways, it just makes sense to me.
"are there even that many books?"
come on over and take a look at my bookshelf...
"do you know how guilty that makes me feel?"
here, borrow a book.
"don't you have more important things to do with your time?"
do you mean like watch countless hours of mindless, creativity zapping television, or waste countless hours looking at Facebook pictures of people that i went to high school with and and haven't seen in a couple of decades? then no, i don't.

i guess there will always be people who don't understand when you decide to undertake a project. but this one, i am doing for me.
