Exhaustion Commute

Be careful when riding the Metro when exhausted (which is generally the life of a teacher) because it's very easy to miss your stop.  As happened to me.  You doze off even standing.  It's embarrassing to have the backtrack but it's also potentially harmful to your paycheck.  No busy student likes to wait for his teacher.

So, see coffee advice...

Kindle

All books since November are in Kindle format.  I know people have argued that ebooks are soulless and not as "fun" to read as paper books.  But I reply, as a constant metro rider, the ereader, be they sony or kindles or others, are easier to read.  In a crowded train, slammed up against five people, it's nice to be able to read easier with a button to flip pages and grapple with handholds.  As it stands, I no longer wish to go back to paper books, even in trains with less passengers.

Current Reading

As of the first week in April, I am reading these books on my many hours of metro riding around Madrid:

2) Patient Zero















3) This Time is Different















4) Everything Bad is Good For You
