A few years ago, the bus service in my town made massive cuts to routes and frequency, making the buses pretty much completely useless to me, I really miss taking the bus places

But you know what I'm actually finding I miss the most about it? Having an excuse to actually get some reading done, I have an e-reader and being on the bus was the perfect time for me to use it, these days I rarely touch it because I have trouble focusing on that at home for various reasons, the bus trips were just long enough I could get some decent reading done and the small size and weight of my e-reader made it very convenient to do so, while using other devices was often inconvenient

I almost never read through books, and that bothers me, especially since it means I'm really limiting myself in my understanding of theory, I basically had to fight myself to even get through a good chunk of State and Revolution, I don't think I ever actually finished reading it
