That would be awesome. I listed most of my books, but I'd be happy to post a full list, so we can do a Buffista Lend thing.
Love the lib, but the wait list for some newer books is crazy; if I could get at some of 'em sooner, that would be great.
Spike: At least give me Wesley's office since he's gone. Angel: He's not gone. He's on a leave of absence. Spike: Yeah, right. Boo-hoo. Thought he killed his bloody father. Try staking your mother when she's coming on to you! Harmony: Well…that explains a lot.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman
All of this talk makes me actually want to open the sony e-reader that I got for Christmas. It seems like it would be a good gift for me, but I like paper. And I like owning books, it's why I don't generally go to the library. If I read a book and I like it, I generally want to own it. But, if I've already read it, I don't want to spend money on it. So, I'd rather buy it and roll the dice. My issues, let me show you them.

Mac problem - just want to know if anyone else has experienced this. Computer is a 2004 G5.
Yesterday, out of the blue, the monitor wouldn't power up. I experimented a little and discovered that it will only work if none of the "extra" cables (USB/Firewire) are plugged in.
Anyone else had this happen, and if so, was it the monitor or the computer? (i.e., bad cables or bad ports)
I do have another monitor I can plug in to test, but it's heavy and I'm pregnant and I hate crawling under the desk.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Grr. I just noticed that there's a Nook app for Android, and realised I couldn't download it. Because it's for Android 1.6. And I have 1.5. Which sends me bouncing around the web, and apparently the Cliq goes EOL Monday. And they haven't committed to a 2.x upgrade date yet!
I'm pissed beyond belief at being so behind the curve on the OS here. My purchase decision was based largely on provider and keyboard availability (I think it came down to two phones), but I still feel shafted. It's not the first app I've not been able to install, and I'm sure it won't be the last.
