I've been reading a lot lately, and I've been finding that it is really *really* tiring. I went to bed yesterday at midnight, after reading since 8. i didn't wake up until 9:40 or so. I've been reading all mornign, more or less, too. Well, I'll say since 11 or so. I've already had to take one half hour nap, and I'm still really *really* tied.

It is partly that the book is just really dense, material wise. It is a very comprehensive synthesis of French history for pretty much the whole of the long eighteenth century. but this is a little much. And i've just realized why... I think I need new glasses. Straining my eyes to read without glasses tires me, in this same way, but I have been using them. but when I let my eyes relax (I don't always realize when I am straining them), I can't make out the words. And at this point, they're so messed up that I can barely read the keys on my keyboard, and the text on my screennis also pretty fuzzy. For the record, I am far-sighted.

Well, I don't know what I should do. Should I try and make an eye appointmentr somewhere? I have relatively new frames, and my lenses have never been too expensive. But I'm not sure if any of that is covered my my insurance. I guess I'll need to look into that. And in the men time, try to read i small doses. And tell myself I *don't* need another nap -_-

I second that. You could injure yourself if you're straining that much.
