I used to have that book, flea! It got donated in the latest purge just because I never really read it and was being strict in getting rid of stuff I probably was never going to read, but that's the only reason it's not in my catalog.

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."

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
Actually, it's pretty easy to tell my books from Mrs. Industries's books, because mine are the books of a public policy wonk with an undergrad degree in philosophy and literature and hers are the books of a biologist in a book club that mostly reads chick-lit and young adult books. I'm not embarrassed about her books, but I've never read some of them. Those I've read were either great or (at least) ok.

So I'm mohmlet at Library Thing.
Curse that, "Hey, don't we have a cat thingy in the basement somewhere?"
Not that I've dug it up yet.
Mostly, adding books from memory.

I haven't decided yet if I'm adding Hubby's books to my library. I feel like a numbers whore pulling in books that live on another set of shelves that I don't bother with.

I can see that I'm going to lose most of my weekend to LibraryThing.

I'm already losing most of my workday mentally going through the shelves at my apartment, and trying to find the right editions without, you know, having access to any of the books I own except the one in my purse.

I just ordered a CueCat, but I'm going to wait until I need to pack up my books to scan them.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Are the CueCats still capturing and sending data back home?

Hey. New board.
I need to join Mrs. Industries book club.
Once, I had most of my books entered in a Delicious library (mac program that can use an iSight or other camera to scan) but I lost that hard drive. It also did DVDs and CDs, which was cool (though I'm missing most of my cases now so had to enter them by hand). Maybe I'll do this thing someday, but probably not. I'm essentially lazy, and would rather spend my Saturday reading some of those books.
