Oh my jesus, how did you people get me into this. I can see where my saturday is going. brendalu as usual, for them that cares.
Buffy: How bored were you last year? Giles: I watched 'Passions' with Spike. Let us never speak of it.
'Beneath You'
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."

I'm scared to check this out, as it will probably eat my weekend. But, it does sound fun!

Hee. I have watched people succumb on LJ and at work, and now you all are falling. It's really funny how addictive it is, for something that when described sounds sort of like watching paint dry. (I haven't done it. Yet...)

I think I'd actually be embarrassed by some of my book ownage.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I've ordered a CueCat and am putting off cataloguing until I have it.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
Oh, dear heavens. This is a bad thing to discover on the day when I am sorting/reshelving my books.
I don't have as many books as I used to, as I'm in the habit of giving them away when I move if they're books I doubt I'll re-read again.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
It occurs to me that now would be the perfect time to start a LibraryThing (if I haven't already...I tend to sign up for these sorts of things and then forget about them until months or years later), because all of my books are still in boxes from the move. If I catalogued them as I unpacked, I'd have a complete list!
(Huh, Firefox doesn't think there's a 'u' in catalogue. But there is, right?)

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
When you're organizing your books is absolutely the perfect time to catalog(ue) them! (And, traditionally, yes, there is a "ue" in catalog, but thanks to the fad in the early 20th century of New American Spelling that stripped out "extraneous" letters, spearheaded by men like Colonel McCormick of the Chicago Tribune, which spent the first half of the century in thrall to rather peculiar spellings ["tho", etc.], the no "ue" spelling has stuck in the US.) Weeding was a great side-benefit to pulling them all of the shelf to enter them into the computer.
Now that I've had my lunch, it's back to tagging!!

I started a group over there under Buffistas since I think a lot of us may be wanting to cruise each others libraries.

Because books.
I am so afraid to even peek in there. I know it will be the best timesuck EVER, and I don't have time! I don't!
But ... books! A place catalogue my books! It's like the website I never knew I always wanted!
