Is this where I get to gloat and say I have whole room for books in my apartment (though I have several shelves worth in other rooms)? That counts as a library, right? Of course, it's also got a futon, so it doubles as a guest bedroom.

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."

We're slowly re-organizing the dining room to turn it into a library, with a table off to one side that we can eat at. Because our huge dining table? Is not used for dining. It is used for storing books, and for having a gazillion clothing alteration projects (with extra fabric, buttons, and trim) heaped upon.

The status is NOT quo.
Quick literary hive mind question:
What is the name of womb/birth symbolism? I know it has a name and can't remember it. Also, is there a name for the female version of "phallic" symbolism?

I don't know if it's the correct term; just that I've heard it before.

Looks like it googles well. Now to find the womb/birthing term.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
paisleys are symbolic of the womb. I know that's not what you're looking for but it's a fun fact I like to share often.
