Reading

As I am still in recovery from scrod poisoning, I have done a great deal of reading.
Luckily, I have been working on my reading.
Following the accident and ensuing brain damage, I was dropped to only being able to read a few lines at a time!
And the styress of that was of particularenough to knock me out for hours!

But, I have continued to try.
Today, I can read a book in a single setting.
Without mental trauma.
Or sleeping for hours to recover.

So, in  my many bathroom hours, I have done some interesting reading:
Gods, Graves & Scholars
    The story breaking the Egyptian hieroglyphics code
    and many other stories
Writing Great Fiction
     Lots of suggestions I never would have thought of
The Creative Artist
     Yeah, I don't think I fit their definition of creative!
Cooking the Caribbean Way
Traditional Cooking
Betty Crocker's Outdoor Cooking
A stack of magazines on coin collecting, painting and shooting
The ingredients on every bottle on the bathroom counter

And you read them again!
Ugh, I was so ill and spent way too many hours in the bathroom!
But, thankfully, it has now passed.
I think.

Swede brought me down a copy of James Hogan's, Multiplex Man.
Unfortunately, in just random leafing through the book I found it highly inappropriate!
So, like so many sci-fi books, I am not going to read it.
Yes, Kris is a reading prude.
I really appreciate books from the era of censorship.
At least I did not have to fear for my standing before God, in that regard!

Remember, I am the one whom took a pile of youth to a James Bond movie and made them close their eyes, when appropriate?
Movie prude too.
Yeah I still refuse to watch some scenes - even when alone.

And now I worry about Swede and his choice in reading material ....
