For Your Reading Pleasure

It was just last night. I was not sleepy, nor did I want to watch tv. I had read the Bible earlier. I came across 3 old copies of one of my favorite magazines that I had not read for some time. I had 3 editions and read portions of each of them. One edition had a story about America's nicest cities. It was a great story about how the city came together during a potential crisis and avoided a potential riot. I love reading as well as interacting with certain items of print that I read. For example, this magazine has a very popular page that tests one's vocabulary. For the most part, the words are not everyday words and are usually very challenging. Last night, as always, the readings were all very pleasurable, but my vocabulary score was not, which made the reading a bittersweet experience. My Score? Let's just say that this magazine is very nice and kind with human sensibilities. There were three categories of performance. Genius, Mental Giant, and Prodigy. I was a bit disappointed with me, but was encouraged when the magazine deemed me a Prodigy. 020223PSCtest, A Simple Pleasure, Julia Ward.
