Scott wasn't up to going to work today. I've been pretty worried all weekend. He looks slightly better today, and the tessalon is helping with the cough, but he's still very obviously sick. He managed a couple of hours in the living room and is now showering before going back to bed.
I'm frustrated because my Overdrive holds dumped two romance novels on me during the last week. One is due in two days, and I can't listen to it while Cordelia's home. It is, of course, spring break. I'd rather not listen to it while Scott's home, either. Partly because of the content and partly because he doesn't understand that I can't listen to an audiobook while there's something else going on audibly. He'll turn on his own book or a video or something and expect that it won't matter.
Getting The Kiss Quotient again will take at least six months. I wish the library had these on CD because I can stick those into iTunes and delete tracks as I listen. I may take months to finish a book, but it means that me hitting a point where I can't go on for several days doesn't mean I can't ever go on.
I realized last night that one of my problems reading library books is that it's vastly easier for me to read things that are back-lit. I need dark text on a light background or the letters wobble badly. My eyes are doing weird things with being very sensitive to light while simultaneously needing extra light to be able to bring text into focus. I'm pretty sure that the reason I've never been enthusiastic about my ereader is that it's not back-lit, so this is a problem going back many years.
I occasionally read ebooks on my laptop, but there are so many things going on when I have my laptop open that I tend not to finish anything there.
