I love marginalia. I found this one a few weeks ago when I was getting rid of some old books and it cracked me up. The author is my father, who was in graduate school when my older sister was a baby. He likes to tell stories about all the reading he did while my sister napped on his stomach. Obviously, he also read while doing the laundry.
