Persuasion

I’m avoiding reading. Instead of reading I’m playing Words with Friends (aka Scrabble) on my iPhone, checking the internet for new posts on my favorite sites, and doing pushups/planks every hour. I’m addicted to this game. Every few minutes I have to check and see if it’s my turn. I have the boyfriend hooked too. He’s always asking if it’s my turn and if he can play for me. We stayed up until 1 the other night playing each other and watching Jersey Shore on the DVR. Today I used an Amazon gift card I received for my birthday to buy some new books. I bought “One Day”, “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo”, and “The Hunger Game” or maybe its games, I don’t remember. Total cost was $.69. Not bad. I think if I make it to book 5 I’m going to treat myself and read “One Day” since I didn’t technically pay for it and it will be on my bookshelf by then.

(I found this on my computer because I didn't take any new pictures)

I need someone to persuade me to start reading this book. I have it open to the first page; I have read the first paragraph 3 times now and after every time I set it down to check my phone. Ugh, I’m just in a book funk now. I need a fun, fast book to read and that doesn’t exist on my book shelf. The books on my shelf haven’t been read because they no longer interest me. I’m losing motivation. I don’t understand these people who have motivation every day. I NEVER have motivation. I’m lucky if I find some one day a week for a few moments. I was able to find a little bit this week and work out a few times.
