There is a simple reason Pam101 has taken a break.
Well, I mean I am busy and after working all day I usually don't run home to get back onto a computer.
But the real reason is...
I am obsessed.
I blame a handful of friends that in September told me about my new obsession. (McHottie added fuel to the fire).
"Pam, have you seen Outlander?" That is what started it all.
I hadn't. Two days later I had called Comcast and subscribed to Starz so I could see what all the fuss was about. One look at the guy who plays the lead, I got what all the fuss was about. DAMN. I binged watched all 8 episodes on a work night. That snowballed into borrowing book one from my neighbor Peg, who has been reading the Outlander books since the early 90's. And as soon as I finish a book, i run the 10 feet across the drive to get the next book from her basement library.
In a nutshell the books are huge- like 1000 pages. And there are 8 of them. I am currently on book 5. I stay up till the wee hours reading, I read at lunch, I read when I get home. I need an intervention. I still watch the shows On Demand because Why Not? The most popular episode is probably The Wedding. Good Lord, Sweet Jesus!
An intervention has been scheduled. I requested it. I am already preparing friends for when I get the series done because we all know I will slip into a depression. My obsessions are notorious. You guys remember the Twilight and 50 Shades days, right?
So, that is why I haven't been writing...i have been reading. Can't hate on me for that, can you.
