Is It Bad To Take It Slow With a Book?

I'm the type of guy who likes to read books. Unfortuneatly, I'm the type that reads the book really slow. Now, I'm not talking about reading the pages slow. I'm talking about reading the entire book and taking it slow overall. So I'm wondering, is it bad to take it slow with a book or novel?

Here are a list of books I have started reading, but I took a long break from them and I just don't get the motivation to finish reading them or reading it more. The list is: The Way Of…

Sunday Afternoon

It's still Thanksgiving break and I'm trying to convince my teenage daughter just because it’s a holiday break doesn't mean she has to vegetate in the bed like a statue or pet rock..... I think I'm losing the battle. It's like 3pm and after breakfast and lunch....She finally decides…

My slang

Ok, I use a lot of slang when I type, and I shall post it all here. When I come across another slang term I use that someone doesn't know, I will add it to the list :D

brb - Be Right Back; It means I am leaving, and I will be back in a minute-five minutes

hb - Hurry Back; It means someone else is leaving and I'm telling them to hurry back…

Daily Devo #10

Nahum

1:10 For they are like entangled thorns,

like drunkards as they drink;

they are consumed like stubble fully dried.

The theme in this verse is still the destruction/complete end (v. 9) of the Assyrians. Nahum uses great imagery in this single verse to describe how the Assyrians will be wiped out.

"Entangled thorns" gives one…

Introduction

Well, I have some sad news... As of October, 25th, 2010, my father

passed away. I still haven't quite grasped the concept that he is no

longer here, but I assume one day it will hit me. So don't look at me

weird if I am chipper one minute, then bawling the next.

*I am ADHD

*I am OCD (Mainly with numbers.)

*I have depression

All three of those have been diagnosed, so I am not just assuming. When I

could afford therapy, there was talk… Continue

Am I the only one who...

Borrows a book from the library and when you read it, you begin to smell an odor from the book? It's not a terrible odor either, it's like a perfume kind of smell. (Kind of like a grandma's house odor.)

This has happened to me a lot and every time it does, I think "I wonder who borrowed this book before...". Then I spend about 5 minutes thinking about it.

Maybe it's just me but it's sure has stopped me from finishing books.

:D

Daily Devo

Okay, so I've really been slacking lately. I need to confess that I haven't been spending adequate time with God like I should. Anyway, I hope to get the DAILY devos up and running smoothly again.

Turkey Gravy and Pies ....Oh My

Thanksgiving for me is always a suprise

My cooking skills...well needs help (I won't lie)

The Turkey is waiting to fry or not fry

If I bake it too long it'll be bone dry

The pies and sweets with other confections

Always come out to be assured perfections

The gravy that ladled is lumps or no lumps

While my stuffings unpacked in sweet sticky clumps

The marshmallowed yams too toasted (I blush)

Eggnog with rum for the Holiday rush

Apple… Continue

Blog No.3 (The Case of the Back Stabbing Teacher)

So, it's a been a while since I last posted a rant here, and the silence seems to have gone un-noticecd, maybe because nobody reads these, but regardless, here comes another, and this one is a real pain in the ass, let me tell you.

So, what's my beef with this teacher? Well it's quite simple. I know that my one music teacher in school doesn't like me, she doesn't even try to hide it, she is very rude about my work, regardless of how good it is, and always critisises my attitude towards… Continue

Daily Devo #9

Nahum

1:9 What do you plot against the LORD?

He will make a complete end;

trouble will not rise up a second time.

This verse is speaking directly and personally to Nineveh/the Assyrians living there. "Plot" speaks of computing or devising. "Against" is referring to motion or direction, not necessarily physical, of hostile character. So,…

Chicago said it Best "Does anybody really know what time it is"

So we humans got it all figured out....Time, Space, Lifespans......

We labeled time but did we really create it????

I wonder if God is a practical joker and this is just one of his many experimental test planets (Planet Bob)

He's seeing how long it takes for us to get it right or totally screw things up. And we are nothing but human shaped guinea pigs stuffed in a revolving cosmic goldfish bowl??? I'm luvin' the goldfish bowl…

What movies can learn from games

I am not really a gamer.

I am a game watcher. Yes, I have played through several games, and actively play an MMO, but I do not find that I fit under the gamer tag. This is because I enjoy watching other people play. The…

My Day (November-15-2010)

Today has been awesome my brothers and I got to buy Mario Kart yesterday, and we have beaten most of the game . My little brother Noah(AKA)Blockhead was (we were playing a math game) very mad that he didn't get good roll . So I thought I'd make little frowning faces to make even more angry (What a great brother am I) and then my dad came downstairs and told Noah that it's so easy to any him that I (me) could make mad just buy putting my finger on my face, so I did and he was so mad that ever…

Live, Love (Humorous Short Story)

I was shot down by you, rejected. I fell through the clouds, neglected. With no parachute to save me, no hand reached from the sky. So I fell and I fell, and I fell, and then I presume I died.

I awoke atop amorphous gumdrops that formed a non-saline sea, syncronized my watch and then was beaten to death by other dead people for being a twat.

When I awoke the second time in the second afterlife I found myself…

This awesome Kommunity is a place where you can express your awesomeness and not be made fun of . I found this Kommunity by searching this site for weeks then I found the highly exalted Rhett and Link Kommunity . I've been a member for about two weeks and am loving the people who are posting the awesome talks .

"Squinchilla is my daughter."

On the Metro today, my dad turned to me and told me that a new girl he's working with is very interested in the indie music scene, so he asked her if she had ever heard of "these great two guys called Rhett and Link". She said that she hadn't, so he showed her this site and she listened to several songs -- "We listened to The Fallen Founding Fathers of the... Freelance Fireworks Hall of Fame together" -- then he told her to click on "Beasts" and she did so and then he said "Squinchilla is my… Continue

FIRST!!!!

Oh wow...You have no idea how nervous I am to be putting this out there. Why? I'M UNBELIEVABLY SHY. My confidence levels were never high as a kid, and when I entered my teens with all those hormones and expectations, they dropped dramatically. But you guys, the Mythical Beasts, are cool with that. You are all like me, or have had experiences like me. You know what it's like.I think that kinda helps, being able to talk and have people sympathize (OMGSOCHEESY). Doesn't happen often in school,…
