chev is gonna read

chev is trying not, to go to bed. a fairly common endeavor for a teenager. tonight he has announced, that he would like to read his book. far be it from us, to hold him back from such a noble task. so chev is sitting here beside me while i write this blog, staring at the same page.
at this rate, i think he is reading about 1 word an hour. he's cruising, and not pushing himself too hard. i cannot for the life of me, connect up to the concept, that staring fixidly at a page for so long, could, in any way, be better than a good sleep. i'm sure that as a teen i could probably relate. i think.
update, he's gone from page 14 to 37 in the blink of an eye! must be speed reading. now he's fanning pages and blowing on them. ah, now he's using his x-ray vision to peer through to his current page from the back of the book. impressive.
my connection to blogger has become quite geriatric tonight. don'tcha just spit when that happens?
