Apr. 3rd, 2019 03:04 pmA stupid problem:
I want to reread Good Omens but I am sick today and don't have the mental energy to concentrate on reading. And I have the audiobook and it's generally good and I could listen to that but listening means that I can't easily skip the bits that I want to skip*.
And so I am doing neither of those things but am also unsatisfied with other activities.
*Aziraphale-at-the-birthday-party hits my embarrassment squick incredibly hard, and I have generally quick-skimmed everything focusing on Newt&Anathema together** since the first time I read the book, lo these many years ago.
**Between them, Mssrs Gaiman and Pratchett have written, basically, one falling-in-love story that I've found interesting and satisfying and, friends, it's not that one.
