Uh... I pretty much slept through Sunday. And played the Battlefield 3 Beta. (You know, I actually get it now! And now I don't know whether to buy it or not. I wasn't going to, but...) Anyway, I'm skipping a day, I guess.
Day 2 - Your earliest memory of reading or being read to.
Hooked on Phonics everyday until Rush Limbaugh came on (which meant naptime. Believe it or not, I used to hate El Rushbo. lol) is the closest I can get, but I was bored with it by then. I remember wanting to read before I could. I remember being bored with reading assignments in kindergaten. I actually remember taking chapter books off the shelf and Mom either taking them from me right then or finding me extremely frustrated because it was taking FOREVER to read the first page!
This one time around when I was 6, I kept taking down Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol. It's a special edition my mom got years ago from some Dickens museum overseas. Anyway, I couldn't get past the first page, but I really wanted to read it. I got in SO much trouble... LOL
