I was going to title it, “Queen of Leisure Sports”, but
listening to audiobooks, and staring off into space don’t really qualify as
sporty.
I’ve been laying off the boob tube lately, as part of some
drunken New Year’s dedication to forming new habits (I don’t recall if I
specified “better” habits? …or, just new ones).
So, as I’m staring off into space, wondering if the new season of Nurse
Jackie has started yet, I grab my phone and ask Siri how she might be of
service to my bored self. Together, we
decide that a game of gin rummy might be a good place to start. She’s good, y’know… Siri, at gin rummy; really
a tough one to read J …now I am an online, gin rummy addict; thanks,
Siri!
Audiobooks, on the other hand, seem like a much better alternative
habit; I mean, it’s almost like reading a book, but someone else is reading to
you!! Oh, how I LOVE it when someone
else reads to me… it IS a far superior form of entertainment than ol’ nurse
Jackie.
I just listened to a Michael
Connelly book about this LAPD detective named Bosch, read by the SUPER Sexy
Titus Welliver… and guess what?! Titus
Welliver is now the lead character in a new Amazon Original Series called Bosch…
and I can’t watch it!!! Oh, but you know
that I will… I’m not going to completely let go of my old friend, the idiot
box, not as long as Titus is alive.
