Loaning Out Your Kindle
My husband is going on a business trip soon, and I told him he should take the Kindle along. He was hesitant at first, despite having read a book on it before. Since he’s been meaning to read Choke before seeing the movie, and I conveniently downloaded it for him within seconds, he was convinced.
Unfortunately, now I’m starting to panic a little. What am I going to do without my Kindle for a week? What if I don’t feel like carrying a “real” book with me on the train? What if I don’t finish the latest issue of Fortune magazine before he leaves?
Obviously, everything will be fine while my Kindle is gone. I’ll finish reading Lisey’s Story and move on to the next “real” book in my to-be-read pile. Fortune will still be on there when he comes back. And my husband will thoroughly enjoy reading the lightweight Kindle on the six-hour plane ride.
However, I feel a little lost without my Kindle (which I’ve talked about before). Much like my cell phone, I get a little anxious when I don’t have it with me. Any other Kindle owners out there feel like this?
