...you travel and forget to bring anything to read! This usually happens when I go camping and I have to go raid neighboring campsites for reading material.
I went to visit family last week and forgot Fool's Errand on my nightstand. I just can't go to sleep unless I read. I was so desparate that I ended up reading my 4-year-old niece's books. Though Harold and the Purple Crayon and the Winnie the Pooh Treasury aren't all that bad, they're not exactly what I was hoping for. At least in this case a bookstore was not far away. Sort of makes me realize what a read-a-holic I truly am!

... the project whose deadline is tomorrow morning has been re-set for tonight. And you're only half-done. And you have other work to do. And there are only so many hours in a day. And it's already almost lunchtime. And I'm can't get unstuck from typing in this forum.

Work, slave! Work!

...The doctor pronounces your gender at birth, and you carry out your life as a member of that sex. Only to find out in your mid-teens that you are actually of the opposite gender?
According to a report on CNN, it happens more often than you would think.

Nathan- I watched a show about that on the discovery channel a month or so ago. Psychologists really screwed a lot of kids up by assigning their gender based on physical characteristics versus their actual genetic makeup. I think I'll go take a really close look at my birth certificate! http://www.sffworld.com/ubb/smile.gif

...people say smart remarks about you because you like to read all the time (in fact some people call it your religion), but then they will sit in front of a television for 4 hours a night.

You work in a modern State office building. You ate a load of your fancified-home-made-fuel-injected-barn-burning-chili the night before. You can't make it to a restroom to let an enormous butt thrusting afterburner loose. So you slip into an empty hallway and KA-BLAM the releif from the astronomical gastro-intestinal preasure is so satisfying. That is until you see the hotest available girl in the entire building heading towards you and down the radioactive hallway that "only you" were in.
As you quickly walk away you hear her coughing.
