40 New Yorker Magazines
Subscription
Kept coming every week
Piled up
Never read them
Wife would read an article here and there
Mostly on her phone
Tell me about a great article
Kept meaning to read
Often would pack one in work bag
Sometimes read on the subway
Weeks would go by
Never happened
Pandemic
Home 3 months
Digging into the pile
Read the Prince article this morning
Something cool about year old mags
Reading before the world spun out
No talk of face masks
Disinfecting wipes were not like gold
My hair was much shorter
Stress level high to produce
I'll keep reading
No excuses now

I’m so far behind, got a ways to go before pandemic issues. It’s a skinny magazine chock full of good stuff.

I feel like a reporter sometimes
Take what’s in front of me and spin some observation
Your bias is well founded
Thx J

I get the Sunday New York Times and love that magazine. I've been reading every one faithfully every week since this began...will continue to do so. I sometimes feel we're stuck in the land time forgot out here in the sticks like we are...it's a touch of reality in the bigger world that I very much need most days.

I’m always happy to hear these stories
The NY Times is an institution and is cherished far and wide !!
Some people live for the Times crossword puzzle. I suck at that but play a mean game of scrabble !!
Thx W

In my family, we play drunken scrabble. Always a good time those nights! And no, it doesn't involve drinking...often :-)

My trouble quotient is pretty low right now.
Haven’t even written any weird sex poems if you’ve noticed.
Yeah the mags are cool, always some good articles and quirky stuff..

There is something about reading articles in retrospect, before the world went and changed really fast. I usually carry a book with wherever I go just in case I'm stuck in a waiting room at the doctors, but sometimes I'll flip through a magazine just because they have interesting articles.
If we have the time...
Nice spill.

Doctor's offices are great places to read magazines you’d never buy. Like Men’s Heath, articles like 50 new ways to masturbate that include household objects !!
