It's my night to catch up on old posts now, do you see these responses after the fact?
How about a subscription to Netflix? If you want recommendations I happen to have a connection with a certain film critic.
Books? I'm shocked and heartbroken that you're not reading anymore. You need a book club. Is there a local bookstore with one? Or how about this one: http://www.shelfari.com/
I'll do it if you will.
It's not that I don't want to read--I can't. I can't concentrate to make it through more than a few pages at a time. Last year I bought shorter and shorter books, and I still couldn't get through them.
Also, two of my medications cause blurred vision. I really can't see.
I tried books on tape/CD, but my mind wandered anyway. It may be hopeless.
No one is more heartbroken about this than I am.
Worth noting: I haven't stopped buying books...
