Re: Do you read differently during full moons?

Post by LittleWilma »

I think that is an interesting question and something I have not thought about before. I know the phases of the moon affects our behavior, but I have never noticed any effects on my reading habits.

This question scares me...
Is it trying to find out if I change during the full moon
Like if I read less I'm also allergic to silver...

I can use the fur that I shed as a bookmark, but other than that I pretty much read the same as any other time.

Well, the moon isn't full yet so you're good for another week or two before you really have to figure it out!

That's because you are running for your life!
Or maybe there is just more light to read by. Either one.

Nice theories. Or my body has more gravitational pull on it and the atoms are moving faster or something.... :roll:
