Going to the Book Store
I took the afternoon off and went to Barnes and Noble. It was a quiet drive into Northville. The weather was hot and a bit humid, but not uncomfortable. I parked the truck and walked inside.
I spent a few minutes looking over the bargain books. Seems like the price of the cutouts is going up. It used to be you could find things for two and three dollars. Now, the lowest price was five bucks. I really did not see anything I was interested in reading on the remainder shelves. I looked at magazines and almost leafed through a couple on computers, but magazines are little more than books of advertising. I’m not about to pay money for a bunch of advertisements.
I went over to the business section and looked for interesting books on Internet businesses. There were half a dozen books supposedly telling me how to make millions online with Ebay or other programs. I looked through a couple of these books, but there was suprisingly little information in these $25 items. I looked at a couple books on business and money, but again, nothing caught my eye.
I went back to the gardening section and looked at books on growing organic vegetables. Then I looked for farming books and found one that is supposed to be about running a small farm business. I looked through this book and it looked interesting, so I picked it up. The farming book had more information on running a business than the book on making money with a blog. Maybe this book will be useful.
I have a lot of books. I’ve got two rooms full of them at home here. I think I am going to take some time off from writing all the time and just read for a while. I looked around for something interesting to write about today, but I ended up playing simplistic games instead of blogging. There seem to be a lot of people reading this blog. At least there are a lot of people finding my article on the Candy Tracks game. So far, more people have seen those three paragraphs than anything else I have written. Maybe I should just review computer games and popular websites.
In any case, that’s about all for today. Maybe tomorrow I will find something more interesting to write about. Then again, maybe I will just go outside and start working on my garden.
