I'm flying to New Yawk for a three-day conference tomorrow morning. I'm hoping to go see the Bronzino exhibit at the Met if I have some downtime.
Talking with a classmate about a school book on which we have to write a short paper, I mentioned that I could read it on the plane. And another book that I was assigned Friday.
"You can read two books?"
"Er, yeah, it's a five hour flight."
"You can read two books?"
"Er, yeah..."

Sometimes I forget that not everyone reads as quickly as I do.

What I'm reading: Roger Zelazny, Power and Light

... Maybe your classmate thinks people (such as myself) like to watch the terrain out the window.

I mean, I *love* to read. But I fly so infrequently, the view hasn't yet lost it's novelty.

But how much do you remember?

Depends on how much I want to remember. I work harder at retention when I'm studying than when I am reading light fiction.
