Walking is boring, and books are awesome.

…a post brought to you by my boredom with walking, and my doctor’s insistence that, if I go walkies, it’ll help with my mental health.

(I’m not buying it — it’s never helped before, but I’ll try anything.)

When there’s been no rain for a couple of days in a row, it’s not so bad ‘cos I can go to the woods, but otherwise said woods are like a very slippery mudslide.

So if it’s been raining within 48–72 hours, then I have to walk around streets and shops and sh** so I don’t trip, fall, and end up in the river/bang my head on a tree/anger one of The Fair Folk by falling into them or summat.

*Sigh* The woods are my natural habitat, dammit!

Anywho, walking is boring, and books are awesome.

So… audiobook time, obviously.

But… I recently audiobooked (the preferred verb, dontcha know,) The Samurai by Shūsaku Endō.

(It’s translated, but I cannot remember the translator’s name, or find it anywhere on the audio files so… sorry ‘bout that.)
