What do you mean "mo"? Is it.. "moment"?
[...] Struggling to get over the 2nd vaccination.
Is that the source of the "tired", ya think? If so, thankfully
it's JUST that. The vaxx thing is still very concerning to me.
I like the 2nd cover. With the phone. That's really cool
If you little kids in your life, try to seek it out. It's a
series of short stories. They are very bizarre, silly, and
clever. They're even pretty good for grown-ups, actually.
And.. don't require too much concentration.
" Reminiscent of Scheherazade and One Thousand and One Nights,
Gianni Rodari's Telephone Tales is composed of many stories--in
fact, seventy short stories, with one for each phone call. Each
story is set in a different place and a different time, with
unconventional characters and a wonderful mix of reality and
fantasy."
" Every night, at nine o'clock, wherever he is, Mr. Bianchi, an
accountant who often has to travel for work, calls his daughter
and tells her a bedtime story. But since it's still the 20th
century world of pay phones, each story has to be told in the
time that a single coin will buy."
For some other light reading that fits in the "palm" of your
hand.. how about this:
