Love/Hate Relationship

I have a love/hate relationship with books.  I absoltuely love them and I love to read, but getting involved in a great book is dangerous!  I get nothing else done...I mean NOTHING!  No laundry, no groceries, no chit chat with the kids and sometimes no shower.  Sick, I know.  I need to pace myself because I am always sad when I finish a great book...
