[livejournal.com profile] megaleena left a comment a few days ago on a post where I talked about my obsessive-compulsive reading list, suggesting it would be interesting if I shared it. Easily enough done!

So, between email, work, and writing, this is what I read daily.

"News" feeds:
Serious Eats (just the top page)
Kempt
The Lulu Blog, though I'm thinking of taking this one down to Mondays-only reading
BoingBoing (again, top page only or until I get tired of scrolling)
Futility Closet (I ignore the math)
Myths Retold
Free Things To Do In Chicago

Fannish stuff:
My LJ and DW friendslists
Geek Crafts
[livejournal.com profile] wcnewsletter, the White Collar daily newsletter
Twitter (Sometimes.)
My non-fannish Facebook (the only way R communicates anymore, I swear to god)
Delicious -- I have a Delicious slush file that has basically four categories: Deal with this, Archive this, Books to read, Origami websites. I also have a Delicious subscription to some fannish tags, so I always check that.

And finally, THE EARTH.

I didn't realise I have no webcomics on my reading list anymore. I sort of fall in and out of love with webcomics, so whatever. (Please don't suggest any :D )

For bonus points, this is my Monday additional reading list.

Career stuff:
Nonprofity, "our" Claire's professional website
The 99%, a very mixed bag
Alltop Career News
Leave It At The Reception Desk
Publisher's Weekly
The Self Publishing Review

Hobbies:
Flint Creek Wildlife Rehabilitation Blog
The Daily Coyote
Origamiancy and Origami Spirit
Urban Ghosts
The Incarcerated inkwell

Entertainment:
Racked Chicago
Siskel Film Centre
Upcoming Movies
TV By The Numbers

Man. Reading it all laid out like that, I do kind of look like a politically apathetic dilettante, don't I?

I also read Chicago Magazine and The New Yorker, and the Monday edition of the Chicago Sun-Times, though I don't know if those are exactly points in my favour.

I just don't find latitude and longitude that fascinating?
