Nightlife

4 a.m. Got up an hour ago. Was thirsty.

Why do I, who really is addicted to surfing the web, always download preprint journal articles and never read them? What is it that I only read online stuff like titles and abstracts and keep ignoring the offline stuff? I mean, hey, it's both in the computer, I read both of them from the screen? So why the difference? Do I have a preference for pink? Do I need to click around in a text to read it? All those downloaded papers relly interest me, they do, so why can't I browse through them at times when I just surf the web reading the news pages over and over again? News pages which really don't interest me?
