I've been spending all too much time in MMORPGs the last, well, better part of a decade. I've no excuse for it, other than its facility for the utter, complete disposal of time. Down the drain, lickety split. Comparably, I might have become some deep disciple of bridge; a formal table prominently featured, spotlighted in my living room, much as yet others, again, might display a baby grand. But, no, instead, I have aggravated my classic carpal tunnel in MMORPGs.

For a good while now, I've approached, reached, and passed the point where I can accept playing on and on and on....creating nothing.

No curling up with them. So I downloaded an ePub for my Sony Reader.
