Having spent the last year living in a little world of my own, frantically surfing most days away on the internet, I have now finally woken up again and realized there is more to life than the Internet. I read a little ad that said ‘Stop Spam, Read a Book’ and that more or less typifies how I feel now.

I am currently spending my days looking after patients,  reading books, swimming and having a nice time with my friends. I had forgotten about books, being too busy reading everything on the internet instead, and now I am suddenly  acutely aware of the almost sensual pleasure of handling a book, smelling the paper, and sitting under the parasol reading.

My friends are very pleased I now have a social life again and so is my dog. He has had some very long walks recently and is getting more attached to me once more. I guess I have no-one else to blame but me for my previous obsessive behaviour on the internet, but I will definitely guard against that happening again. So Stop Spam, Read a Book is my motto from now on.
