Tossing a book? Never! I read, underline, write notes, etc. There are a couple books I read so many times as my sitch was changing so quickly (or as my understanding of it was changing) that I had to start putting dates next to the notes. I think my copy of DR is starting to fall apart. But I set that one aside because I’m past that point now...

I know what you mean about panic inducing. And that sounds like what you said a few weeks back about when you’re out in the wilderness focusing on the next hour or the next meal. It’s something I should train myself to do. My brain operates in a kind of big picture way. I’m always looking for patterns, connections, meaning. Answers. Which in this kind of thing you apparently don’t get a lot of.

I’ll get the Corey Wayne book and see what that’s about. I’m super skeptical of all the dating books, some of them seem pretty slimy. But at some point it’s information I’ll need, so why not.
