I so totally would have been a cross-dresser.
You'd look hella good in a frock coat and a top hat.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Having added a couple of shelves of books from home and my history & policy books from here at work to my Library Thing account, I note that one of the people with whom I share the highest number of books is music writer Carl Wilson (aka zoilus), who is also working on a 33 1/3 book.

Jelly is the extracted juices (food mill + cheese cloth, usually) jellied, where jam includes things like pulp and seeds. The process for making, once you get beyond preparing, is pretty much the same.
I'm a jam girl, but that's mainly because I'm too lazy to make jelly.

I've been meaning to catalog all of my books after I finish my latest purge (I've already got two boxes full of cookbooks, romances, and assorted fiction titles to bring to my company's next charity booksale), so I've bookmarked LibraryThing to get me motivated. Not a bad idea to have it for insurance purposes.
(Edited to correct my spelling of "Library"--and I want to get an MLS???)

I went to check out Library Thing to discover I already have an account. Hmm..

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I checked out Lola and Corwood's shelves so far, and we all have Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell.

I have 8 in common with Lola and none with Connie thus far, but I still haven't touched the bulk of my stacks yet.

I have 1 in common with Lola, none with Connie and 5 with Hayden. Of course I am adding books from emmory, since my are all packed up, and not being able to find the right editions is driving me a little crazy.

I haven't put in my writing books or my architecture or most of my history--forget all the fiction.
