A tough one...

Today was not an easy one to manage. With all the live television blasting in my house I struggled to find a way to avoid live information. I went to the gym today and I saw the post staring at me. I wanted so badly to pick and up and read it during my workout. As a journalist, the paper is my own little sanctuary. I can escape my normal routine and pretty boring life and go to other states, countries and worlds. Nothing beats a great headline.
So i skipped the paper and reached for a magazine. But of course, those are off limits as well. So in conclusion, I had probably the worst workout in a very long time. I was information deprived and basically just plain bored.
My eyes have become tired of looking at a computer screen. While it may be easy to flip through stories on the internet, nothing beats the feeling of flipping through the paper pages yourself.
