I agree with the comment that magazines are a bit of a guilty pleasure and can be a bit on the fluffy side. They are just for fun.
Lots of people have been listing The Ensign in their magazine list, and that’s making me feel guilty ’cause I never got mine renewed this year! I need to do that! :)

I miss my subscription to The New Yorker. I subscribed for awhile but decided to give it up because I wasn’t finding time to read the magazine as often as I liked. I tend to favor books to magazines and my magazines end up piling up until a magazine mood strikes.

Like you, I do subscribe to work related journals as well. I like to stay on top of the latest trends and research.

Ugh, the New Yorker. I would love that magazine if it was a monthly instead of a weekly. But with it coming every week I just feel like I have no time to read anything else. Or I get behind and feel like I have to read the past issues before I can start the current one, and then it’s just a downward spiral… A few months ago I subscribed to The Nation, also a weekly, and I’m having the same problem. :-P

I didn’t really feel like responding to the Weekly Geeks this week as the only magazine I read regularly is the Ensign!

I really loved the New Yorker and had a subscription one year, but I found I never could get through an issue in just one week: and then I was behind. Because I loved it all, I wanted to read every page of it, every week!

I may give The New Yorker a try again at this different stage of my life. I really do like it!
