I am reading "The Time Traveler's Wife". I have been reading it for about a week now, reading a little bit at night. Now I am far enough into the book, where I don't want to put it down. I have been reading it on and off throughout the day (in between the girls and things like feeding them. ha). I love the feeling of becoming so engrossed in a book that everything else disappears around you. I was so deeply engrossed in the book while the girls were sleeping that I had 'forgotten' where I was and who I was, and was 'in' the book. Then the doorbell rang, yanking me back to reality. I still feel "groggy" like I have just woken up out one of those dreams that you are so deep into, so apart of that it feels like this is you reality, not a dream. That is how I feel when I have become so engrossed in the book, and then I must put it down. When I put it down, I feel like an addict, one whom is just passing time, thinking about the book, craving the book, and counting down time until the next possible moment that I can pick up the book, and become engrossed, become one with the book.
Ok. That sounded incredibly stupid. But I do so love that feeling that a good book brings--the feeling of being able to be so completely absorbed in the book.
Ok. Karina is here, and I think the girls want to get on the computer now.
Those aren't the lyrics?
