Booking Through Thursday

Have you ever missed an important appointment because you have become so engrossed in a book you forgot the time or were up so late reading that you didn't wake up in time? Been late to work because you couldn't resist the temptation and left the house too late?

I've never actually missed an appointment, but I've been late for this very reason. I always have a book with me to read in case I have to wait, but if the book is particularly good, the problem is putting the book down long enough to get ready and get to the appointment.
I do most of my reading at night before going to bed, so it's very common for me to forgo sleep because I just can't put the book down. Now that I have kids, oversleeping just doesn't happen, but a good book makes for a very cranky mommy in the morning. And did you know that you can change a diaper and read a book at the same time?

lol! I haven't tried to change a diaper with a book in hand, but I'm sure it can be done.

I don't have children, but I've read and driven at the same time. (Hey, it's better than some people who drive and put on their makeup!)
