A friend of mine was talking about how it took her a long time after her PhD to enjoy reading again, and it was such a relief to hear, because everyone I know is super into their research, and I feel like I could gladly live five years without ever reading another book or article.

At the same time, she now enjoys reading again, so it’s kind of reassuring to think that maybe, someday, I Will Be What I Was.

Also, every time I see some apparently-cool sf/f story going around on Twitter, it’s like … I couldn’t properly read it right now, but I’m looking forwards to the day when I’ll actually want to. Someday, I will be free!
