PJ

Pj's, not to be confused with BJ's which is a fine dining establishment that we frequent for their daily specials, are awesome. Who ever thought spending a day in them could be so rewarding. I cannot recount the last time I wore them all day long, and alas i cannot say that today made it in the record books either for i admittedly had to put on gym clothes to visit the workout room, and then I did give in an shower before we went to eat at BJs and then to a used bookstore. That brings up another point, half priced or reduced price book stores. Great idea, don't get me wrong, but I feel on a ccertain level we are just feeding the animal. The only people who like to go into tose places are those who read way too much to begin with. The ones who sell their books back end up leaving with more than they came with and therefore spending just a few dollars over what they earned and therefore the viscious circle continues on, which keeps the store in business, and so on and so forth. Now, don't get me wrong, I love these people aforementioned as book addicts dearly. I currently live with one, well for another week. I grew up with two in house and for a time of my life in elementary school I was one of them. Since then, my mind has filled, my time has been called for by many other avenues such as school, doctoral projects, mindless movie watching during any free time, and of course pointless blogging such as the present. With this maturation and strolling away I find that anything I do read I like it to either feed a deeper longing such as something focused on my spiritual growth, a classic of American literature that will be a common buildig block for intellectual conversations with random strangers, or something completely entertaining like the history of farting book which was spotted at the un-named reader's delight location.
Anyway, I must go tend to my 101 Famous Poems discount purchase on this Memorial Day. I might even put on my pjs again, don't want to deviate from a good thing.
