How much do you read, and where do you read most of it?  Are you like me, do you mostly read online? Are you a bookworm, and read through piles of books at the library? Do you regularly keep a book next to the bed and read under the covers with a flash light?

Do you tell people you don't read and then read when they aren't looking? Do you read embarrassing things that you'd rather not have people know you're interested in?  Would you be embarrassed if you were caught reading this?

What do you like to read? Do you mostly read novels and fiction, or books about science and industry?  Do you read the most popular poop-culture novellas and fashion advice?  What about magazines, do you read things like "87 ways to fry bacon using only 17th century medical techniques" or "how to lose 3 boyfriends at once and not feel bad about it"?  Are you fascinated by articles about strange and obscure topics like how to treat an iguana for red scale mites, or how to spray-paint pine cones green so they look like a Christmas wreath?  Have you ever actually spray-painted pine cones?

What about online stuff, do you read blogs, emails, twitters, IM's, PM's, RSS feeds, chat logs, chat messages, forum posts, blog blurbs, blog comments, comment comments, comment comment comments... is your head hurting yet?  Have you realized how much you read?
