reading is fundamental
Έτσι … Ποια είναι η Δημοσκόπηση της Δευτέρας;
Excellent question! Δεν είναι, σε αντίθεση με το όνομά του, μια πραγματική δημοσκόπηση, όπως με μικρά κουμπιά κλικ. Είναι απλώς μια λίστα πέντε πολύ περισσότερο ή λιγότερο τυχαίες ερωτήσεις που έχω δημοσιεύσει σε αυτό το blog κάθε Δευτέρα το πρωί για τα προηγούμενα τεταρτημόρια χρόνια (από το 2007). I love reading your answers, and it helps me get my week off to a good start.
1. A bagel with cream cheese, or yogurt with fruit?
I’ll take the bagel, and none of that “whole wheat” or “mini bagel” nonsense. give me a good old-fashioned regular bagel, and toast that bad kid up! and get some Trader Joe’s Chive cream Cheese on there, too. ?
2. makeup or skin care?
YO, at this point in my 40-something life? I’ll take all of THE SKIN CARE. Ολα. Του. Το.
3. What’s the best way to treat yourself?
Oh, that’s easy (but hard to finagle). I love it when I can spend an entire day only doing things that make me happy.
4. If you were required to hang out with someone from a reality TV show, who would you choose?
Marie Kondo so she could help me de-clutter, LOL! Nawww, only kidding. I really wanna hang out with Jonathan from the Queer Eye Netflix reboot so we could chat about cats, hair and the final season of game of Thrones. I half-jokingly tell El Hub to nominate me for the Queer Eye show. I want the fab 5 to come fix my hair, my house and my life.

Here’s mine: You, just as you are, are enough. Also, your hair looks amazing today. ?
Deep thoughts on books…
Hiya and delighted Monday. πώς πάει?
OK, I’m trying something new this week.

Hold on to yo’ seatbelts…
I’m reading — not one, but two fiction books at the same time! ΧΑΧΑΧΑ! I don’t know why this seems so scandalous to me, because back in college, I was always reading multiple books for multiple classes all at the same time. I just don’t do it ever anymore. Nowadays, when I actually do read for pleasure, it’s normally focus on one book at a time.

So this is “crazy,” quote unquote, for me.
The first book is called Transcription, by Kate Atkinson, and it’s really good. It’s about an unlikely British spy in world war II…
And I’m also listening to an audio book called stunning Ruins, by Jess Walter, which is just OK… I’ve been trying to get through it for nearly a year now. The narrator is a dude, and while his voice is just fine when he reads the men’s parts, it gets artificially high-pitched whenever he reads a woman’s dialogue, so every single one of his lady characters sounds the same…like a man pretending to be someone’s grandma, and it wears on me.
I’ve stopped and started it how lots of times now? Ugh. but I’m taking another crack at it again… We’ll see how far I get.
Anyway, I’m reading two books at the same time, which feels rebellious to me for some reason. ?
How do you manage your reading for pleasure? Do you go at it, one book at a time, or do you read multiple books? and while we’re at it, what are you reading these days.
Soooo…Monday! I hope your morning has been good to you. Μιλήστε σύντομα.
Η φιλική σας γειτονιά έκκληση εξαρτημένη,
