I admire you for being able to just walk away with no guilt. I know my reading would be much better if I did just that!Zibileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05857638467064749190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31135028.post-69034273305269553482009-12-16T07:55:42.992-08:002009-12-16T07:55:42.992-08:00It really does feel nice to set aside books that j...It really does feel nice to set aside books that just aren't working for you!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06474584473012742915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31135028.post-18349670225267597142009-12-12T06:47:48.751-08:002009-12-12T06:47:48.751-08:00I support you!

Don't feel bad about quitting!

I've listened to <em>Prairie Home Companion</em> here and there, and it's often amusing, but I always feel like I'm missing something. And then I saw the movie <em>A Prairie Home Companion</em> and I was just like... what? But my parents, who have been listening to Keillor since forever ago, thought it was wonderful and actually seemed to know what was going on. :)<br /><br />Sadly, I think it might be a little late to catch up on all of Keillor's shows...Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14470999393375072607noreply@blogger.com
