Hello, my name is Sandra, and I am a librocubicularist! In plain English I am a person who reads in Bed.. that I am a librocubicularist, drives my husband crazy...
I do it every night. He goes to bed early, like 7:16 o 7: 30. Way to early for me and I prefer reading over watching TV and since I can't go to sleep then; I go to bed with my kindle and put it on low-light and read until I am sleepy.
Are you a librocubicularist? I could live in a library, just put a mattress on the floor, connect to provided wi-fi and read all I wanted to. might not work since I love to talk like I love to write. Which is the same thing to me. Do you read in bed?
I found this word on An English Girl who Rambles and had to give to all of you. The word was invented in 1919
This what I found in Wiktionary has to say about the word..
