Going to the Library
Going to the library is a luxury vacation. All these books available literally at my fingertips—and I don’t even need to buy any one of them. What a wonderful concept! As soon as I was old enough to have a library card, I used it—with my mother’s permission, though, since she was the keeper of the card. In fact, I even faked losing the card so that I could have the actual card in my possession. My mom found out, though. That’s another story. Bottom line is that I kept my love for reading alive and escaped into Judy Bloom, Black Stallion, and Bedknobs and Broomsticks, among many other escapades.
Even with the advent of the internet, nothing replaces actually flipping through a book with my hands and borrowing as many books as I please without waiting for the shipping and handling of online orders and extensive downloads with my prehistoric wireless connection speed.
