This Just In: Library Worker Doesn't Read Books

Amazing, truly amazing. I sit here, bored while working at the library, with thousands of books at my disposal. I could be reading up on Ancient Egypt, Edith Wharton, the Phantom of the Opera or finding out exactly what made Dante's Inferno such a Divine Comedy. Am I doing any of these things? No. I am sitting here, expecting the internet to create my entertainment for me. With no success thusfar.

I can remember a time where I read everything and anything I could get my hands on. I had a killer attention span, and I could focus like a sharp-shooter. I also remembered every book I read with amazing detail.

Now, I can't sit still through most books, I skip details like stones, and I can remember the plot lines of books that really catch my attention, but that is about it. It could be the aspartame addiction, my advancing years (at 25 that hardly seems appropriate) or a little of both.

Anyways, I would rather sit bleary-eyed, glued to my computer screen looking for cheap tamagotchis on Ebay than read. I am losing it.
