I'm a slayer, ask me how.

I actually remembered for once! Even texted my boss on Thursday night to make sure it was okay to wear my Hitchhiker's Guide t-shirt to work. AND I carried a towel with me ALL DAY at work. People probably thought I was nuts but whatever. I always credit Douglas Adams for being the author that got me back reading.

I was in middle school and had pretty much given on reading for fun. All the books they had forced us to read since 6th grade were DEPRESSING - Bridge to Terabithia, Where the Red Fern Grows...just...blah. I wasn't reading much beyond my Garfield comic books. Then I stumbled upon a copy of HHGTTG in the basement and my Mom cracked a "42" joke to which I responed with a blank stare. She told me I needed to read the book to understand it.

So I did. And it became one of my favorite books of all time. I didn't know books could make me laugh out loud.

So on May 25, I have to honor Douglas Adams, for getting me into reading and into the library for the rest of the series! He was one hoopy frood.

(Why towel day? Read below on what The Guide says about towels)
