[DEVIATION]
Oh God. Horror of horrors.
So, it's my birthday, same as it is April first of every year, every year since 1964, at least.
I guess, out here in the West, America in particular, birthdays are known most for gifts.
So, what do I want?
There's always books I want, but wanting and getting books Is just an old habit I got stuck in back when I was younger and read a lot more voraciously. I don't read nearly so much anymore, not really. This is mostly thanks to the internet. I hardly read anymore compared to how I used to read so all the books just keep piling up. I actually have books I'd like very much to read, but they're buried at the bottom of huge boxes of books I have piled up in the living room, and it would be a major project for me to dig through them all to find the ones I want.
Anyway, what I’m really trying to say is that it would be kind of silly for me to want another book. In fact, any material gift at all wouldn’t be ideal. I already have way too much junk
