On the one hand I feel like reading something totally Yasunari Kawabata or Orhan Pamuk and on the other I feel like I should read something Neil Gaimanish or Chuck Palahniuk sorts.
Perhaps I'll get a book that's a bit of both or get two different ones at that.
Decisions decisions
I'm unable to read a lot of books at the same time, or leave a book half read for that matter.
The only variable in this case is probably that I can listen to a different audiobook in parallel, apart from reading a book, and immerse in some comic books apart from that.
So if I'm committed to a book, well, I'll be a one book woman for that time until I finish it.
The last book I read was 'knees up Mother Earth' by Robert Rankin, and I tried hard to stretch this reading journey by only trying to read a few pages everyday, but that was near impossible because that book was ludicrously comical and deeply engaging. I think many a nights I hugged the book as I slept, hoping for its smells to permeate my being, for its fingerprints to implant themselves on my person. A bit creepy, but that's how it is.
Ok, so I've go the blogger app on my iPad as well as phone now (I just transferred it) , and as we know that app has certain limitations, apart from the fact that it doesn't update, you can't even sync it for two different blogs. As in you can't switch to write in to another blog..so apart from syncing my blogs to my mails (I do as I'm told), I have now the added advantage of using the same app on two different gadgets; which I now use to write two separate blogs.
Apart from that I use the basic Notes app on iPhone to write. It sometimes includes my grocery list, or phantasmal words that were translated from thoughts mid sleep, or even ideas on what next to draw. Basically I use it as a note..from writing gibberish alphabets to ten page stories.
Apart from that I've two small diaries that I use to pen down things, days, details and what not.

It's been raining since last night, and not the ferocious pelting raindrops, but rather a steady flurry of dew drops, but this has put a damper on my running plans today, and thus rather foolishly I opted for a 40 minute at home full body cardio workout, and I'll have to say running is a better bet..because it isn't half as tiring. I mean running for 40 minutes doesn't make me feel like I'm knock knock knocking on satan's door.
Ok, So I run at a steady pace for about 6 kms and I do it about 3-4 times a week.
Apart from running I do some light exercises at home on my trusty Yoga mat. Some squats, some lunges, some jumping jacks and plenty more. And I keep mixing them up, but today inspired by some Herculean will, I decided on a full 40 minute workout, and by the gods, I was a puddle of sweat after the first 20 minutes, by the time it was finished I think my muscles felt cemented. God knows what kind of agony I will see myself in tomorrow..hopefully not much.

What I really like about the new iOS10 update is the musical montage thing it does with your pictures. it was kinda cheesy cute and nice..
I had to turn on the keyboard sounds just to hear them click.. which they do with such a murmuring gluck. It does sound a lot better, but it's back to being mute again.
Pressing home button is a bother, cuz I'm so used to swiping, I end up with the camera mode each time
