I couldn't do it

I couldn't even do it.

Here it is January. I started listening to the audio CDs in the car, of which I have two 45-minute drives (to and from work) to get it done.

I couldn't do it.

It bored me to tears. It may have been due to a horrible reading. But I just could not bring myself to put the next CD in. I think I had just met Captain Ahab and I gave up.

I need to try reading it again. A chapter a day, right? I can do a chapter a day.

Right, that's what I've said before.

The really sad part is that I have heard several Moby Dick or white whale references in the past few months that have really gotten my goat. I know the story and the references but have never read it.

Here I go again.

Mrs. Conley, I really despise you.
