I can hardly wait until tomorrow morning when I head out to Dallas for HarmonyCon!

Nice! I hope you have fun! I have never been to any of the cons, I wish I had some friends IRL that like MLP that would go with me.

Reading can be analogous to eating. You can have a session in which you have read through enough text that it feels as though your mind is "getting full", and it becomes difficult to continue; perhaps it is a sign that it is time to stop reading, and to give time for the insights of the aforementioned text to be "digested".

hmmm never really heard anyone compare both in this way, but it certainly feels this way after reading a lot...interesting.

I recently had long sessions that were difficult for me as I was reading about a subject that is largely foreign to me. The sensation of my mind "getting full" occurred nearing the end of said sessions which is not necessarily the norm.

With the comparison of reading to eating, Francis Bacon came to mind:

Quote

“Some books should be tasted, some devoured, but only a few should be chewed and digested thoroughly.”

I totally understand that! I'm taking some business courses and recently I have been reading on certain psychological aspects of leadership and team environments. Some concepts were new to me, but fascinating nonetheless. That quote is well said. There are some books that are worth taking your time dissecting it like a meal. Others are like a delicious snack that you end up devouring in mere moments.

Who thought books could be :Pfood?  

Keep me away from any manga and comics, because I'll devour those in an instant XD

Meh bad news as I got a predicted bug in my GPS system, after thinking I solved it. Such bad timing too, and now I am wide awake in the middle of my night’s sleep.

Bad news is bad *brushes it aside to try to find sleep again*
