<human>: So I just finished spending the last three years battling against Lyme disease (go, me!), and during that time I basically became addicted to watching television and movies - for the simple and obvious fact that Lyme attacks both retinas and attention spans (which is to say: brains). It was simpler, it didn't hurt my eyes nearly as much, and I didn't even need to turn on a light to make it happen. What sucks is that I used to be a *voracious* reader, with an impressive vocabulary to match, and in fact I've got over 900 books on my shelves. And now they sit there collecting dust. I feel like an 11 year-old kid being told that reading is super-fantastic, and reacting the way that most 11 year-olds would: *but it's boooooooring*!

Can you give me the gist of the text in a nutshell?
<bot>: used to read a lot, got very sick for a long time, now I'm hooked on TV/movies and eager to kick that addiction and get back into books.
